Stitching And Stamping Away.
We have some lovely sunshine for today so it is worth making the most of it with some time in the garden and some photo taking. We have also been having a few hiccups with phone and Internet connections, but, fingers crossed, it all seems to be working properly now. I am still working on [...]
Goodbye, January.
January has flown by quickly which probably means it has been a very busy month. Hard to believe tomorrow is a new month. I have continued to enjoy my Fernhill BOM from Lynette Anderson. Block 3 is done and I am working on number 4. It is an enjoyable stitchery and I have set no [...]
Happy Australia Day.
Happy Australia Day to all Australians, where-ever you happen to be living today. We have a holiday long weekend and there are events happening all around the country to celebrate the occasion. Love the Google emblem on the homepage for Australia Day, today. Last week I had a lovely day with a group of friends [...]
Santa Bags.
I have recently completed two little Santa Bags. Not unusual for this time of year except that I have only learnt to crochet in the last month and this is the first thing I have made. These are a lovely size for young children. The Christmas cards are finally made and now being prepared [...]
Weekend Cards.
I spent some lovely time over the weekend with friends at a workshop to make some cards for Christmas. (It really is going to sneak up on us!) Chris is the lovely lady who ran the workshop. You can find her on Facebook at The Art Room. (I will find the link for that.) We [...]
All Sorts.
The nearby city of Melbourne is well known for its changeable weather. This Spring has certainly been one of extremes. Three days ago it was bitterly cold and snow was forecast for some of the mountain areas. Today has glorious sunshine, blue sky and a gentle breeze. No getting bored with the weather here. But [...]
Paper And Pins.
I have hardly had a chance to play with paper these last few months, so it has been great to get a few cards made. I really do need to get some scrap-booking done as the photos for this year are piling up. And I also need to think about getting some ideas for Christmas [...]
White Rabbit, White rabbit.
March ends today and we will be in April tomorrow. Daylight saving ends here, so a little time adjustment is needed. And Easter is just around the corner!! Sneaking up fast. I have been able to make a couple of felt rabbits for Easter decorations. I simply did a search for a rabbit template then [...]
Tangling.
Summer is lovely with all the warm days and the many outdoor activities. The only downside is that not a lot of sewing is being done. I suppose there is always Winter to catch up. I was able to attend a one day class today for quilting with Zentangles. We spent the morning drawing on [...]
Nearly There!!
Christmas Day is sneaking up very quickly and for some reason I keep finding things to sew! Why is that? At least they are little, easy and portable. These are from the current Christmas edition of Better Homes and Gardens. Rather cute! I was able to make more of these decorations, too. And I still [...]
