QUICK XMAS SWAP.



Today i received my parcel from my swap partner. Lyn Thankyou lyn, love the wee buttons, so cute and the fabrics too. The ric-rac will be very useful also. I have a project in mind already !

This is not a very good photo .I am having camera problems.

BLOCK 10 A TISKET, A TASKET.



I completed my block 10 from Bunnyhill. Not long till the next one, then only 1 after that. I added a spiders web with spider that i made using a couple of black beads and then stitched on some legs.

I have still not done anymore to my bag yet. I have been finishing my sscs things and they are now done! They turned out quite good, but i can't show you them yet.

BABY THINGS I MADE.

well I haven't blogged for a few weeks because i 'v not done much really. I have nearly finished my bunnyhill b.o.m. and will show you when it is completed, hopefully this weekend. I had to make a baby clutch ball for a lady who wanted a blue one for her grandson. I had this one already done but might do another in blue tones then she can have a pick which one she prefers. I also like to do these bunny's by hand on baby clothes or whatever people like. My mum showed me that this is how she was shown how to make some cute wee bunnies. They are quite cute! They brighten up a plain item of clothing don't you think!

A FEW THINGS I FOUND

While i was a way last week visiting at my mum's, I bought couple of peices of fabrics from the quilt shop . The shop has just recently moved to the main rd and bigger premises. Lots of lovely fabrics to touch and buy! I also got some antique ric-rac given to me . Fay gave me that ,she loves her patchwork too next to her garden that is. It still has the price per mitre on it,, 76 cen
ts.!! I might do jennys shabby roses in the pink fabric..... not sure yet.
My bag has started but i'm thinking about changing the piping..... no hurry to do it.

NO STITCHING.!

Well i have't done a thing all week, don't know why just could't be botherd really, not in the mood. I did have a migraine the other day so didn;t help in the slightest . I am off to my mothers tomorrow for a week, she lives in paeroa , n.z. , as it is 2nd week of the holidays. i'll be glad when they are over!! I take a few projects with me maybe i'll get something done, hope so. might be able to start my bag, it is all cut out but that is all, just have to wait and see.

'IT'S A LONG DAY TODAY"

well daylight saving has started ! It's a long day today. It usually takes me a bout 2 weeks to get my body clock adjusted , then i don't mind it. It's at the other end i hate because they have made it to long now. This week i am going to try and make another bag with this fabric. I really like the browns in this. I will do a post when it is done, I should really be doing something else not starting a new project but i just have to do it!

'PERFECT WEATHER FOR STITCHING'.

well when i got up today i looked out side and saw this! Quite a misty looking day, it wasn't cold at all, looks like the middle of winter!! It's not, it is meant to be spring! It has been yuk all day so i thought it was a perfect day just to do some sewing which i did. I completed my block 9 of bunny hill. Quite a cute, fun block to do.

"I HAVEN'T DONE MUCH."

I THINK I WAS TOO BUSY PLAYING WITH STANLEY ON THE weekend. He is the pig! so all i made was a new pincushion for myself. It turned out ok. here is a pic.

these are a couple of pics of the ground orchids as they are all flowering now.
