I Can See Progress



Yes I can see progress, might even be able to say I'm half way , unfortunately I can also feel a couple of kilos through lack of activity, must take more calories to knit. Definitely considering Weight Watchers, need to lose about 20 kilos I think.

The roses are coming out, here is a Teddy Bear minature rose, named for it's browny shade of pink.

Another week gone past in a blurr



Got some goodies in the post today from my Aunt who recently visited , she is into card making and teaches classes in it in Tasmania. We spent a day touring the scrapbook shops around the area when she was here which was quite enjoyable. I want to give quilling a try and couldn't find any tools up here, this is her version of I'll send you a couple when I get back. She also sent me an e-mail about a new Craft show coming up in March 2009 in Sydney, and later in the year for QLD and VIC, website is www.craftfest.com.au (sorry can't get links to work).

And last but not least the cross stitch progress photo for this week, have a deadline of early December (doubt I'll make as you can see even doing some each day progress is slow) , my daughter wants to take it to Oran Park to be autographed. So no fibre action at all

Another Update


Slowing making progress , have had 2 lots of visitors from interstate in the last 2 weeks, but have managed to get a bit done each day.







My Aunt and Uncle came to stay from Tasmaina for a few days. It was lovely to catch up with them again. Took them to Mt Tomah Botanical Gardens on Sunday and escaped the heat a bit. All the waratahs were out, had no idea they grow on huge trees. It was a bit hazy, apparently due to the eucalyptus oil from the gum trees in the heat.
