Mermaids are real - especially when you're 5!





Everyone enjoyed meeting mermaid Jamie https://www.jaimethemermaid.com.au/
It was a dream come true for Benni.  Jamie visited for her 5th Birthday party and we all had fun.  I have it on good authority that Jamie 'grew' her tail in Hawaii.

Christmas Day

 No, Grumps - you press this button.  The tamborine didn't get a look in, the buttons & noises won.
Benni using her magic pen to make great pictures!
School next year!

Promised for Christmas


I promised that Jordan would have a quilt for Christmas - he received it on Christmas Eve!!! Panel bought from USA (couldn't find one here in Brisbane - he loves Diggers!).  Machine pieced & quilted.  Everything else from my stash.  He did love it - I think, boys are not quite as expressive as girls!

Weekend retreat results

 Was feeling a little miserable on retreat - had a cold, had forgotten or brought the wrong projects to do & so, I had to play.  Drew these little pictures & proceeded to thread sketch.
 Can't believe I drew this face & really happy with the thread work.
Jugs - first try - bit random but I like it.
