New Technology

 I may have just worked out how to upload photos from my phone . . .

Therefore, there is a bit of an update on things I've been doing.

At the start of the holidays, I had a wonderful day helping my clever friend

Ric Rac on her award winning stall at the Craft Show in Melbourne.

 She is a very clever girl who makes exquisite toys

I took a fancy to this bag.  It's a bit small to see the writing but it says:

"DANGER - Creative Genius At Work"

 My winter couch time has been taken up mostly with my mini hexi's and I'm getting close to putting the purse together.

 I always fit time in for crotcheting!

 Posted these to a friend in Tassie, as she took a fancy to the one's I'd made and thought she'd like a pair in orange.

 And then a thrill today to see my friend Nichole in Ballarat.

She was teaching one of her purse classes at our "local" - so a few of us went to catch up after class.

 Yes, she was really here -

Lovely to see you Nic.

You Sew Girl

"Love ya work"

Sister Love

 Being the middle of winter, and my love of flannelette, I started cutting up some squares for a Winter Quilt. 

 Birthday Love from my sisters - this beautiful addition to my Flowergarden

Made with vintage plates and glasses, on a metal stake

I just love it!

 And some beautiful lilies for my 'inside' garden

 Just a magnificent scent in the air

. . . and lovely reminders of Sisters Love

Liberty

 Bags and a little Snap Purse

 That's what's been happening in my sewing room . . . amongst other things

 Both lovely patterns from Nichole Mallalieu.

Did you know she's written a second book?

The Better Bag Maker - A "must have" for bag lovers like me.

 . . . and Master Flowergarden 14 had fun with his dinner last night, making creations . . .

Annie's Aprons

 A friend asked me to make her a couple of aprons for gifts.

I had fun choosing the fabrics and getting them ready.

 She showed them to another friend who has a lovely shop in Melbourne called

OPEN DRAW

That led onto an order for the shop.  I have made some more big ones and some pint sized ones as well.

I'm enjoying being on 2 weeks holiday from school, and have even been attacking my hexagon project.
