Lunching...




Lunching… Not much stitching to blog about but lots of cutting (I will explain) … a small group of sewing friends enjoyed a lunch at Green Frog Hollow… yum yum yum it was perfect… thanks everyone…   





 
With sewing…. Well… Cutting cutting and just a tiny bit if cutting…as I mentioned before but these beautiful Roses are for Robbie’s Quilt…



One row sorted…. Another to go... but its looking very nice…




then I need to blanket stitch around them… sheesh




With all the Christmas celebrations going on I was inspired to find this and finish it… thanks I am … its Oh Christmas Tree by Angles in Disguise … I know its older… but…. is just so cute...


I found it… right where I left it…. in the compendium that I made to keep safe…





the compendium found a perfect home in this…. Something I saved from the bin… the story behind the bag is sad but here goes…… many years ago, I helped my mum clean out my Nannas home as she had become frail and ill and needed constant care… so we moved her into an aged care unit and that’s how I saved this before it reached the bin… My Nan would be so proud…


I am a short and sweet sort of girl...




WHO… they named he/she WHO… a baby owl… it must have tried to fly and it didn’t work out … we found him/herself like this on the ground at a friend’s place… we promptly found a cardboard box and covered him/her from predators and it giving him/her a chance to hide… later the next day they found him/her perched in a tree next to a bigger owl… we are sure it was a mum or dad… so all good news … now the baby owl is enjoying the local night life…

Cheerers for now and thanks for stopping by… Robyn… thanks all and Merry Christmas
