Monday last I took a trip to St. Kilda to have a look at the shops and have a walk along the beach. The above is the smiley face of Luna Park, a fun theme park.
This is the kiosk at the end of the St. Kilda pier. The original kiosk which was built in 1903 was burnt down by arsonists in 2003. It had stood for 100 years. A new kiosk has been built for people to come and enjoy.
This picture was taken on St. Kilda pier looking towards The Esplanade.
There are a lot of cafes dotted along the beach.
There were a lot of people out and about enjoying the day.
The buildings in the City of Melbourne can be seen in the background.
It was a lovely day for a walk and sea breeze made it pleasant.
Although it was generally an overcast type of day it did not stop people lying on the beach and trying to catch a bit of sunshine!
That's all for now,
This is a pincushion I have made. I could not resist this cute pattern. This little owl can be made into an ornament for the Christmas tree. It is a Susie C Shore design. It does not take that much time to make one up and I can see myself making more in the future.
A new year begins and I hope for everyone it is a good and peaceful year. Hard to believe that 2012 has started!
The large tree with the red baubles is the new Christmas tree in the City of Melbourne. It was decided to create a forest by placing small trees around Federation Square for people to walk around and through.
I have been 'baking' and these two are fresh from the sewing machine! The table runner above I have called Christmas Stollen. The table runner below is called French Bread. The 'recipe' was designed by Susan Fuquay and supplied to me by http://www.thepatchworktree.com.au/
Now to finish the edible Christmas treats!

During the week we went on a drive to Hastings which is a suburb in the Mornington Peninsula. The above is a picture of the boat harbour. It was a very pleasant day.
