Rosie Redapples

Look out for a little doll in this months issue of Australian Country Treads magazine due out 8th May.

Death of a computer!!

My computer is dying!!
Actually it's been dying for several months now but today it seems to be gasping for whatever a dying computer gasps for in it's last days.
Luckily I have a new one on layby, but let's hope this old banger lasts another couple of weeks.
My burgundy quilt is coming along. I have had some problems with choices of fabrics for the backing, so that has slowed up construction a bit. But have fabric ordered now. The front is finished, batting waiting. As soon as backing fabric arrives, I hope to give myself 3 days to finish it.

Rainy days

Rainy days in South Australia invite the opportunity to spend some worthwhile hours in the craft room.
I have a quilt on the go, for a magazine project, plus 2 witches, 2 cows, and various stitcheries. There's also a new quilt in the head, waiting to be grafted to paper.
I just love rainy weather.

A new quilt

Another sneak preview. A new quilt I'm working on, in rich burgundy and pink. A little patchwork, a little needleturn applique...

As promised a sneak preview of one of the stitcheries going in Country Threads in the next few months. Not giving much away am I? :)

A lazy Saturday

I'm having a sort of lazy day today. Just sitting back watching cricket with hubby, doing a bit of stitching.
I have a new project for Country Threads on the go, which includes stitchery. All I'm going to say now is that it's about friendship and birds.
There might be a sneak preview in a couple of days ;0
