Trying to stay sane!!!!

We are now starting with winter here and have had a few cold days lately but love it. Today is very windy. Having lots of issues with water supply!!!!!It seems that our municipality has not been giving attention to the pumps that pump water into our holder dam. Now its long weekend here and nobody wants to answer their phones. The huge question I always ask is where has the self pride in work whatever you do gone? Here is large communities that depend on water coming from the dam. Luckily I have water tanks here and we often have rain so they stay full. We are not dependent on the municipality. 

I have not been doing much as I have some wrist pain and need to rest my hands a bit. Its  a bit bad as I am unable to lift things with my left hand. I am a lefty anyway and think that I have been picking heavy things up. Not easy as I have started another quilt and need to cut fabric but hands are too sore to press down on the rotary cutter.  

Gee its so difficult to just sit around and not do much. I have been working on my owl slowly and taking breaks.





A new quilt that I have started but have to cut a lot of pieces still!



My sister sent me this cute snowball globe, which she put in a piece of check fabric, but was sadly damaged in the post.
I had to use it to make something beautiful anyway and decided to make a pincushion using everything.
  

Made this vinyl bag for a friend who was in our town this past week.


Also made a bag from a small piece of vinyl and will use it for keeping my 
threads in.

 

Thaankful!

Found a very nice fish añd chips shop nearby us.  Its my Birthday month and I started a new small cross stitch patte...
