Back on holidays

How time flies. It has been awhile since I posted on my Blog!
Term 4 was a busy term. I am now into holiday mode and beginning to get back to some sewing.
I recently collected a quilt from our local quilter, Elizabeth. I was so excited and very happy with the result. I have began to bind it, so it will be completed soon.







The garden is surviving, it is nice to be home to enjoy it.



The kids and I went to the Melbourne Aquarium to see the new Penguin display, well worth the visit.


There are a few sewing days being organized over the next couple of weeks, so I hopefully will progress with a few sewing projects.

Your quilt looks lovely, Elizabeth does a great job! That is one of my friend Kerry's (My
Favorite Things) prettiest quilts when you see it in real life. I helped her pick the fabrics for the broken dishes blocks (civil war reproductions) and quilted it.
