Friday's Fences

I grew up walking past this place, (primary school is just behind it) we used to make up scary stories
about who lived there!! Now it's one my favourite places to have coffee or lunch with girlfriends
 

 
FF News break!! :-)
 
Last week I took a photo of the garden down the road, I went for my usual walk earlier in the week to find they had ripped out the pretty wire fence!! A new fence!!! stay tuned to see what they replace it  with......
 
To all you Mum's out there, have a truly beautiful Mother's on Sunday
 
My computer died last week so I am waiting for a new one. I'm also hoping that my computer man, Bart will be able to save all my docs and photos, as naughty me doesn't have anything  backed up!!!

Friday's Fences


I go by this place everyday, and never really took much notice...........until this week!!
It used to be a jungle, you couldn't see a thing, you could barely see the fence, but last weekend they had a clear out, what an enchanting garden was hidden in there!!. There's a small water feature with an angel, a bridge, a garden swing (sorry I couldn't get it in the picture) a planet .........it's just lovely. Pity I didn't get a before shot!!

"L" Scatterdays

"L" is this weeks Scatterday letter, and the list is sky, purple, a city and a lap quilt.
Not too difficult, but to find the photos, now that was a bit of a challenge.

In the sky I have this photo of 'La Luna'. I think it was taken last November on our way home from Lorne.

Purple, well that was easy, Laura's bedroom is painted purple!!

Ahhh memories.........my favorite city, Lugano. Situated in Southern Switzerland in Canton Tessin.
I was there in 1984!!

Lap quilt

there are more Scatterdayers over at Cinzia's blog

See you next Scatterday

Stitched in Time

I am still on a high. The weekend my friend Gail and I hosted was a huge success.
We planned and prepared and it all came together for a fabulous 2 days of stitching, fun, friends and food. 

I made name tags,

We made the table centre decorations,

 The hall all set up, gift bags for everyone.

The designers Gail Pan and Jennifer Knol 

 the guests


we had the girls from Foothills for a little retail therapy

 Lunch

and afternoon tea

 My fantastic helpers, Laura who made the best scones and my girlfriend Hermi absolutely amazing help in the kitchen

 Our Country setting, the hall in Narre Warren East


Looks like everyone had a a fantastic time, we may be doing it all again next year. Stay tuned.
But for now, I'm looking forward to doing some of my own work, and have a little me time in my sewing room. 
Till next time

Friday's Fences



Found this gorgeous fence while out and about with hubby.
I think its very friendly.

Linking with Friday's Fences

I hope you all had a lovely Easter, we did, we had a lot of family time. Easter egg hunts on Good Friday with hubby's family,  Laura arrived home Easter Saturday form her Canada/Us trip, 
to say she had the time of her life I think is an understatement, but she's happy to be home. 
Easter Sunday spent with my family.

I've also been busy with planning and preparing for our Stitched in Time sewing days on the 13th and 14th,
I'm getting very nervous.

Catching up a little

I haven't sat and done a 'what I'm up to/what I've done' post for ages. The days just run away!! 
I'll rewind just a little to just before Christmas.
(be warned, lots of photos)

Down at Mum and Dad's place a new member was added in early December. Jack wasn't too happy to start with.............
Meet 12 week old Lillee, a kelpie x border collie X lab. 
She's sooooo cute, and................

.........growing very quickly!! This was last week, she's 4 months old
Jack is all happy with his new companion.

Christmas came and went, we had fabulous family time


Before Christmas I managed to make some birthday gifts,
a table runner for my SIL's 60th

finish this quilt for my nieces 21st,

 christmas gifts, there were others but I forgot to take photos.

 January saw us travel to our usual, favorite holiday spot, Inverloch, where we had THE best, most relaxing time ever!! The weather, perfect for the whole time we were there. 

The company......... fantastic.

Looks like J was proposing to J ;-)

 walks up to the bluff,

early morning walks along the beach........

evening walks along the beach, 

its was just bliss.
I took this photo with my phone, can you believe the colours!!??

Home again 
and it was time to get the kids organised for the first big solo overseas trip to Canada and the US.
Justin left first..........his trip was for 4 weeks, he had a ball, loved the cold, snow and learnt how to ski.

 Laura left 5 days later. Her Canada trip is now finished, she too had a ball, she's now in the US
having a totally fantastic time.........am I jealous, ..........yep!! She still has another 3 weeks to go

I must admit, the house terribly empty, strange feeling it was.

Then it was right back work.
I do have a some things happening, like preparations for this stitching day.
It should be a  great weekend.

That's it for now,
Have a fantastic week

Enjoy It, Live It, Love It
