this is someones home in battery point !
'be not long away from home' read the little sampler at hobart cottage and just as we all went away, some of us like me are now home, however my friends are still on their way today. little children always want to go home, my friends are also looking forward to being home, it is so nice to go travelling, but your own bed and comfort zone are a very strong part of our lives. i was in two minds, very comfortable where i was and loving what i was doing and enjoying the company of family and friends, but am also happy to be home!
daylight saving has also started in the last week here in this part of the world and it was a perfect sunday in hobart to start the next six months, here are a few captured pictures of that sunday!
from battery point to salamanca and down to the river, people and even the dogs were out enjoying this beautiful sunday. walking, sailing, swimming and paddling !
and i took so much sewing down with me to do while i had sooooo muuuuuch time to do just what i wanted ! well i did get quite a bit done, but the prize for me was finishing a project that i have enjoyed doing ! now it is in the pile to be quilted by hand ! here it is just spread out over my guest bed. i will always remember that i started it 01/10 and finished in hobart in 10/10.
talking of 10/10 go and look over at linen and raspberry , my friend jean had a birthday yesterday on 10/10/10, see what she has been up to, gorgeous things !
i am happy with my very scrappy quilt top, i have enjoyed all the drawing out by hand, cutting out by hand, and stitching by hand and using lots of bits that probably would still be in the cupboard ! happy enjoyable hours !
