Quilt blocks on their way!

I posted off a few Healing Heart blocks today to Shirley after reading about it on Jo's blog on Saturday.



I love the pink one on the left, the words say it all. P.S can you see your material here Nabs?

 

As you can see I am hoping for my blocks to go in a child's quilt, these teddies have been in my cupboard for a long time waiting for the right time to escape.

$16 for this strawberry!

Only one strawberry so far and $16 spent on plants

P.S. Happy birthday to my lovely son, first birthday in his own home!

Reminiscing

Nicole added some old photos on her blog (see Gypsy and the Curious Owl link) and while looking for some work things on an archive disc I found these.

Such cute kids!! Who is that fat boy

Lenah Valley Primary in .........

Photo in the Mercury - such a good little 2year old, yes I will have a badge please.

Elderberry wine

Just sat down at my computer after my gorgeous son left to back everything up as it crashed twice when we turned it on tonight - and of course haven't backed up forever. Mike (you can see some of his photos on the Flickr feed on my blog) and I had dinner together and a good natter for our regular weekly catch up. However I did get a bit distracted and thought why not do a blog post....

I went to Bothwell for work yesterday and saw this fantastic Elderberry tree next to the Post Office. So tempted to pick the flowers to make some Elderberry wine!

Started some more Christmas stitching over the weekend but spent most of the time (as the rain came down) cleaning out cupboards, what a horder! I even found an unused 35mm film for my old camera - and the camera as well. How expensive were those and now we can get must better photos digitally.

I've been busy

Who could this be?

Just a little sneak at what I have been working on this week.

P.S. Happy birthday to my beautiful daughter

Coles have a lot to answer for!

I went to do some grocery shopping tonight, well I suppose I do have to eat but not my favourite thing to do. Right at the front of the store were a stack of beautiful plants that just jumped into my basket.

Just loved this strawberry flower so had to buy it even though every one knows I don't do food in the garden! Now I will have to buy some more to fill the pot.

This one just begged to come home with me - at least it is non-edible. Not in the garden yet, maybe tonight. I did buy another one as well but my camera battery died before I could take a photo.
