it has been busy at my place !
take a look with me at the last week or so !
i have had a gardening angel visiting, popping in without notice, pruning the roses !
this angel is known to me, a woman on a mission, i have a little problem at the moment and she has helped along with the neighbours to freshen the look of the garden and clear away the cuttings
she arrived with her own clippers and bags and would get busy working without me even knowing she was working so hard. these are very old bush roses and needed a really good cut back, thanks so much, some of you will know this angel !
at sewing last thursday, marlene had a new piece taking shape rapidly, a new colour way is happening in her home and of course this includes some more quilts
some other pieces also
and we were stitching, chatting and looking at this book
we love watching this 'gourmet farmer', current series on sbs at the moment here in australia. the 'anzac biscuits' are not from the book but were on the table and delicious, marjorie had made them that morning before doing many other things and all before joining us, she is oldest member of this group by many years and she makes all of 'us youngsters' feel exhausted by all that she does !
it is a good book and also has some lovely personal quotations from matthew evans
i had completed another 'camelot' circle
another friend completing this small cross stitch alphabet sampler
and another was building houses with a kaffe kit
i am certainly not building houses at the moment, the problem i mentioned at the beginning, is a broken right leg, no story to tell, just another sideline to having very flat feet, lucky me ! but it will get better !
i will be back soon with lots more to show, make a cup of tea !
