Good Grief!!!!

What's that?????



Why, it's carpet!!!!!!!

I kid you not. We have not seen the carpet in our son's room for about 3 years. The girl that achieved this has been told she can come back anytime!

Catch Up

Hi Everyone,

The last couple of weeks have seen me trying very hard to catch up on the SKoW Stitch Along. I am pleased to say I am now only 2 months behind! Last night, DH was at the movies with workmates and DS was out and about with friends, so I had my own Friday Night Sew-In. I didn't join the official one. I will if I get to do it again next month. Here is where I am up to.


Easter saw hubby and I gardening, just tidying and mulching. It looked good when we finished. I then sat and thought about one more garden bed. Our son is all grown up now and doesn't spend any time kicking a ball around, so I can put another bed in. Hubby doesn't mind - less grass to mow, he reckons. We have low fences and I want to create a more private backyard with sitting spaces.

On Mondays, my SIL has her grandchildren and their mothers over for a Mums' Monday. It is a great way to catch up, see the children and for them to play with their cousins. On Easter Monday, DH and I joined them for morning tea and lunch. It was absolutely delightful -seven children under the age of 6.  Because it was a public holiday, all but one of the dads could come too.

As I was making the collage, I realised I did not get a good photo of the other two. Must remedy that. These are the children who are the recipients of the baby quilts I make.

 I have been buying books and having thoughts about more projects. I'll be back with photos and reviews.

Take care,
Kayly
