Carmen asked for Any Stars in pink, burgundy, green and cream. These are her blocks.
I have 2 options at the moment - Tall Ships, and Tile Block in black and white with one patch a solid colour - like this -
I will join a number of these ships to make a large floor cushion for my sailing grandsons.
Yesterday I spent over an hour choosing books for my older grandchildren for Christmas. There is a lot of rubbish on some book store shelves, but I believe I found 4 beautiful, meaningful and well written books appropriate to the ages of the readers.
For the little girls, I am making summer dresses in co-ordinating fabrics from Prints Charming.
What a very busy time of year - Dragon Boat Regatta at Forster next weekend, Manning Dragon Boat Christmas party [and breakfast] the following weekend,
district Croquet clubs Christmas celebration and trophy presentation early December, and our club's Party and Trophies the following weekend.
Our district is sooo-oo dry the trees are shedding leaves and the grass is brown. At this very moment the rain that started last night is still falling, and is forecast to continue for a number of days. The vege garden and the water tank are also benefitting.
Can't work outside today, so I think I'll warm up the machine and do some more of my paper piecing swap block.
