Latest Projects

I have been crocheting and paper piecing. 

Firstly the camper is in need of some crocheted blankets just to make the camper more retro.

So I have started on about three extra blankets for the kidelinks and my BAM.  (None of who will appreciate the hard work rather just the warmth they might bring....)

So the first one...it is going to be a double size blanket.  Its pattern is from the Better Homes and garden magazine


 
It involves making lots of squares and sewing them together
 

I've made a start on the numerous little ones........



And I have been paper piecing via a BOM



I've used Lecien Flower Sugar fabrics.  I will be joining using the triangles and I have picked a green background fabric.  Have not started joining yet!!!

 
 
And we have a new addition to our house
 
Meet Misty
 
 


She's been with us about a month now.....and the kids love her to death....poor thing is so "handled"  the kidelinks never leave her alone.

And here is our house in the depths of winter....it was -2degC the night this photo was taken ...but I got a sweat up outside gardening at lunch time.  And it is so still and calm.  Love it



Look how full the dam is and the orchid...well it does not look that different to a year ago when all the trees were planted


And the best to last ...my new front lawn.  It came at the cost of my back!!!!


Not quite your Paul Bangay but there are quite a few roses in there...all hidden away from BAM.  If he only saw the Treloar rose orders.........
