Landscape #2

This landscape was made by my friend, Merody, in a workshop with Sue Benner (I think) many years ago and she handed 3 to me to 'do something with'.  This is the first one and I gave it back to her, finished.  Really enjoy doing this little pictures.

Off to Germany

 A Quilt for Arthur - simple & made from my stash

 Backing fabric had goannas, kookaburras, koalas etc and embroidered the lable directly to the fabric.

 

Detail - embroidered 'A is for Arthur' in English and in German!  Sounds impressive but the only difference is in the words 'is for' - German 'ist fur' with umlauts over the 'u'.

A cushion cover for Alma - a panel of the beautiful unicorn, embroidered detail and added sequins. If you click on the photo you might just see what detail has been added.

Significant birthday

 

Celebrated a significant birthday yesterday with immediate family and some of our close friends.  HofM surprised me.  Thank you to Kath for the lovely mud cake - glad she didn't add the number of candles needed.

Family time

 Shiloh & Grumps playing with cars on the kitchen floor.

Grumps & Shiloh checking out the dog next door.

Christmas Break-up

 Outgoing Management Team received sunflowers. 

 We had an activity - creative, of course and artistic.

Being led in our creativity.

Landscape #1

Practising my thread sketching on a collaged background.  Getting better and happy with how this looks.

Colour Challenge - Rainbow for November

 I thread painted the bird and lilies and was really happy with the result.

 I called this postcard 'Colours of Australia'.

This one is called "The Party's Over".  I have black to do for December - who knew that this would be appropriate considering what most of our States are going though with all the bush fires.
