it has been so beautiful and gorgeous, the sun is shining and the skies so blue and all is calm and the gardens are all returning to colour and lots of things in bud. life is good !
this is some of the colour i am talking about, the flower of a nasturtium ! and i love their form, the shape of the flowers and of course the leaves !
i have done another circle, 'camelot' the second time around !
quilts in the barn is on this weekend, started today, and what a perfect day for it !
if you can possibly get there, you are supporting such a great cause, all monies raised are donated to research into a cure for breast cancer and we all know someone who has been down that road. linda and her family and friends put so much effort into making this annual event such a good one and this year leonie and deidre from the quilted crow in hobart, tasmania are showing their wares and they have some lovely bits.
recently meredithe from pomegranate and chintz got an award from someone and a part of that is that you have to hand it on, and she chose me as one of those 'lucky ones'. you are supposed to tell 7 things about yourself ! well only because meredithe is such a lovely person and i do enjoy reading her blog, she takes you on so many lovely 'outings' of places she has been and things she and her friends have seen and shares so much of interest, i will tell 7 things, but won't pass it on to other bloggers if you don't mind !
so what will i tell you ?
1. i am content and always able to amuse myself.
2. i love comfort and joy, family and friends. i really appreciate whatever others do for me.
3. i love inspiration from fabric and threads and ribbons and wool and patterns.
4. i love paper and cards and thought provoking messages and sayings and words and little books and writing and good pens and pencils.
5. i enjoy watching television and love the reality shows, talent quests and football in the winter and cricket in the summer, but it is also my sewing time. i love water views.
6. never go to the movies as i always go to sleep, always have done, even back in the 'boyfriend' days ! enjoy live theatre ! and music !
7. i have many projects started, they all get a turn and i finish some, others probably will never get finished but are part of who i am !
