I am so excited. My patchwork shop has placed my order for my DJ software.It s going to be so much easier now. today I have been making some Mother's Day gifts . Our church hosts the ladies from the "Aged " (their Word)units next door.

Isn't this picture beautiful. This is the first time we have had a second bloom. I have just put this on invites for our mother's day lunch. my friends at Among the Gum Trees are going to give us projects next week for Mother's Day. I am looking forward to that. One of them Vikki is having a giveaway, so pop over and see what she has. She has a pattern published which is just lovely.

My busy time is over. I have a lovely new lounge dining room. Now I want to make some covers for my lounge suite. I think they call them "anti-macassars". we had a lovely time sight seeing. Canberra is a beautiful place and after 22 yrs I never tire of it.

I am actually hiding in my bedroom. We have been moving rooms and I am sick of it. This Friday we will have some visitors with us for a week from South W.A. My new job (1 day a week ) is going well. Trouble is I do not get to go out and look around. There is a beautiful patchwork shop acroos the road which calls to me but it closes at the same time I am going to have to figure something out.

my dear friend vicki is celebrating 2 years of blogging. She is a very special lady , very talented and generous with her ideas. I met her while she was still over in the west Congratulations . Drop by her site and gain lots of help and see her work.

this is a picture of the beautiful embroidery I worked on from the forum that I belong to. Each lady , of the 11 that took part has done some work. We also had to do 6" patches too. That was very stressful. I will make this into a cushion soon.

Today I have been looking for curtains for my new room. I cannot get motivated to do anything until the curtains are done. I have played with my new toy. A preserving kit. Not the best year for fruit tho . The birds attacked everything.
