Catching Up, Again!
I feel a bit like a stranger who has been gone too long. I know I have been busy, but hadn’t realised I had missed a whole month. Plenty of medical issues have kept me busy and none of them were mine. Lots of time has been spent in waiting rooms and next to hospital […]
Adding To The Collection.
I am getting towards the end of this burst of donation quilts. The collection is steadily growing. I will now get back to a few of my own quilts, which are waiting impatiently on the sidelines. This little lap quilt is made from leftover charm squares from the Sherbet Pips fabric line. I had to […]
Bird Houses And Teddies.
I have continued to make more of the Strippie quilts with fabric that has waited patiently in my stash. I will get a few more made for donations, in between some of my own quilts. This one stood out with its bright colours and bird houses. The birdhouse fabric and the flowers on the blue […]
A Quick March.
Everything seems to be moving along very quickly – including the month of March. I know we are trying to catch up on all we have missed during lock downs and so there are a lot of requests for social activities. But also I think we became very comfortable with the slow pace of lock […]
Too Much Cuteness.
I just had to finish off that koala I was knitting. But it didn’t stop with one. A bit like eating potato chips. So I ended up with three. They are lovely to make – a little bit fiddly, but worth it. The hardest part was the faces and I am sure that they will […]
Keeping Busy.
Welcome Spring. It has been lovely to get outside in the sunshine over the last week. But there has still been plenty of time to fit in some stitching, too. Three of these little friends have been put together. I tuck these away for gifts. They are an easy project to have on hand. I […]
A Prickly Handful.
As usual, I have found a distraction in between finishing quilts. Here it is in a small bowl. I went to a class at Bear Essence in Tooradin with a group of friends to take a class for this little baby hedgehog. I think the prickly fur is quite delightful. The hedgehog is made to […]
Bears, Possums And Flowers.
This really is gong to be an all sorts post for today. It has been an enjoyably busy time time with several workshops and little travel squeezed in as well. We spent a few days in the Bendigo and Maldon region last week. We managed to dodge the windy days and had several delightful sunny […]
Chocolate bears.
I am again joining in with Melody’s Teddy Bear’s Picnic today. I am going to sit down, put my feet up and enjoy a cuppa and a biscuit while I look through the posts. I am also linking with Marcia’s Minutes For Me – because that’s exactly what I am doing. I am having some […]
Tin Teddies.
Today has to be the most perfect day for the Teddy Bear’s picnic. It is a mild Spring day and the sun is shining. Can’t ask for more that that! I am linking up with Melody at The House On The Side Of The Hill and joining all the teddies and their friends for the […]
