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.

Boonah Retreat - last for the year.

 Visitors morning & evening - the only patch of green grass around.  Most of it is so brown, it' heart breaking.

 Sunset on Saturday evening - the smoke from the mountains gave this very firey show.

This is a banner that our group produced in 2002 (I think that's the date on the back) - all our signatures provided lots of discussion and memories.

Journal Cover

 The back of the Journal Cover

The front cover 

Opened out - the base material was the leg of a pair of black jeans.  Free stitched - just went where I please - used mainly perle cotton thread.  Have the other leg - not sure what I'll do with it.

Longest Lutheran Lunch

Every year around this time, our church family gets together at the German Club for lunch. This  year we were a bit low on numbers but still had 35 - usually have around 70.  Great food as anyone who's eaten at the Club knows. Beer good and company was great too.
