a wedding

sharing a nice photo of my nieces wedding.

 The tables had china tea cups with floating candles, the saucers had small glass vases with wild flowers & roses, an old vintage suitcase  for the gifts of money as requested.
The photo below is of us four 'kids'.

Look at these cuties.............................

Sampler Sister 'L'

Inspirational on a perfect morning!!

Thought you might enjoy this on a perfect morning (sorry farmers not sure what happened to the promised rain!!)

Thanks for your company last night those fellow 'sisters' who were able to make it. A fun evening which I for one thoroughly enjoyed.

Gail Pan's latest BOM

Thought you might like to see Gail Pan's latest BOM which she posted on facebook yesterday. Some of you might have already seen it. Isn't it stunning. I love the colours and the mix of stitchery, applique and piecing. Apparently the pattern will be available in January.

A finish (thankgoodness)

I have finished the last of the town blocks for the My Town quilt and just have the centre and corner blocks to go. I think they will be very easy after tackling this one!! A very challenging block with lots of tricky hand stitching. Good luck when you get to it Raewyn.

Have a great week my fellow Sample Sisters.

Christmas is Coming

A reminder that Christmas is just around the corner ... what a lovely collection of work!!

Not patchwork related!!

 This is what I nearly walked into when out pest monitoring yesterday!! These naughty bees have left home and made themselves a new nest in one of our young avocados.'

Isn't this lovely, a nearly black iris. Even after living here for 3 years we are discovering new plants 'popping' up.
