I am still here

 

It must be time for another blog update, and it seems like a long time since I have posted quilt photos. These are going back to last month, and as May is about to arrive I better get them out.

First is Val’s quilt, showcasing a range of fabrics, very simple piecing, but it looks great.

And this is Kath’s, and very simply custom quilted, as I find it hard to do an allover and quilt over all the applique.

And these 2 were made by Mary for a friend, and very pretty in pinks.

The weather has turned wintry this week, and it was fantastic to wake up one morning to glorious rain. Not sure how much we have had, but think about 25 mls or 1 inch in the old measurement. I think that will be enough to turn the taps at The Sanctuary back to rain water in the house, which will save buying cartons of water to drink.

I still have to write a report from last weekend yet, and it is coming. It was a great time, and the Paper Bag Mystery”s pleased them all.

Had a trip to Naracoorte today, another medical appointment, and while there, had another little shop up at the garden store, just a few more bits of colour to plant in the garden at The Sanctuary. Getting ready for an afternoon tea birthday party this weekend. I have been busy this week, with loads of washing, and a quilt deadline that needed to be done by May 1st. I just scraped in as i have taken the quilt off the machine tonight.

Well, time for bed, lots happening tomorrow.

Blessings, From Jude

Lovely quilting and we had 26mls too, but it is below 0 deg this morning and a little frosty. Take care.

Glad you got a good drop of rain, we had about the same here. I hope the mystery weekend went well. Love the pink quilts!
