Still taking photos. Today it was my beautiful Cleo's turn,
It's hard to believe she is 13. Seems like yesterday when I bought her home.
The photo a day theme had me stumped for a while today. I finally remembered this tree out the back of work. J is for jacaranda. I must try to remember to get a photo when it is in bloom. It is a stunning tree.
A little time for some crochet this evening. I still struggle a bit with the join as you go method but it is getting easier.
A busy few days has kept me away from the blog so time for a little catch up.
First up some photo a day prompts.
8/1 was lucky number and mine has always been 6. It was also our number when we were bidding on this house.
9/1 the prompt was natural. I chose this home grown dahlia.
I then missed a couple of days. Yesterday the 13/1 the prompt was something that makes you smile. Cleo from the moment she came into my life has done just that.
The late stash report is not good. In my defence most of the fabric was ordered before Xmas but not received till last week. I love these shot cotton modern solids.
The report then:-
Fabric used this week. O
Fabric in this week. 12 metres
Net position. 11.75 metres in the red.
Oh well plenty of time to make a comeback.
A trip to Newcastle today to celebrate the gorgeous Jacqui's birthday. She turned 21 yesterday and is an intelligent beautiful young woman.
I should not be surprised as she is the daughter of my oldest friend who would probably be cross with me for sharing this photo. Never mind I'm sure friends of 45 plus years can get away with it.
The day was also tinged with sadness with the news that Laurie's sister-in-law lost her battle with cancer today.
Not much time for sewing but I did manage to add two little pieces.
Finally the prompt for today was "words to live by". For me it just had to be this word which is my motto for the year. Seems like I am also reducing this to the bare minimum.
A work day. Theme for fmsphotoaday was "My Town". Well my town used to be considered suburbia but high rise like this is the new norm.
Some time tonight for some work on my Celtic Solstice blocks. I am pleased to say not a triangle point lost yet. My scant 1/4 inch is definetely improving.
