Mornington Craft Market

 Last Wednesday we went to the Mornington Craft Market and the above shows some of the craft available to buy.
 There were lots of fresh produce to buy as well.
 Above and below shows that Spring is not too far away!

 These owls looked cute.  Owls are still popular.
This artwork was along the foot path in the Main Street.
 There were lots of stalls to look at.
 The traffic was busy with people coming and going from the centre of Mornington.
 These chimes were of an interesting design.
The buskers made everything cheerful with their music.

We were lucky to have such a lovely winter's day.  The temperature was 22c which was quite warm for winter.

That's all for now,

Some sewing

Above are some blocks I have made using the tutorial at http://quiltville.com/scrappytrips.shtml I enjoyed the tutorial which was very clear and plan to make up some more blocks, enough for a lap quilt.

That's all for now.

G'day!


There have been a flocks of white sulfer crested cockatoos flying over the area where we live and this is one that came to say g'day to me one morning.

That's all for now,

My mother

Sad to say that my darling mother passed away last Sunday the 17th February 2013.  She was 97 years.  I will miss her.

Owl bag

This is a bag I have made.  I used the raw edge applique method to sew the owl onto the bag.  It was great fun drawing the owl which I had in my mind for a while.

That's all for now.

Christmas Time

When I was visiting Melbourne crossing  Elizabeth Street I saw this Christmas greeting on the side of the Flinders Street Station.
Even the foot bridge had a decoration
 as well as the Melbourne Town hall being all wrapped up!
This is the Christmas tree for 2012.

Tomorrow is Christmas Day.  I wish everyone a very Happy and Joyous Christmas and a peaceful time over this holiday period.

That's all for now,
