Time!!!!

Wow haven't been here for a while.  Life seems to get busy! We had a nice 2 week trip 'down memory lane ' even went to the tip of Africa. 

Busy getting Matilda goes to the beach #finally a farmgirl design done.

This is a block we made as a group 'The Ragdolls'

Here we are where the two Indian and Atlantic seas meet!

 

Crosstitching Station!!!!

Made myself a crosstitching station using a nice wooden tray we got full of goodies when we bought our new small car. The black is a nice triàngle foam covered with black fabric. I bought it to hold hubby's tablet but he never used it, prefer holding in his hand. . So it holds my clipboard with pattern and lots of space to store all my goodies. I put my thread holder box underneath when finished  stitching. I have a cute cat new project started this week and working on it tomorrow still. Will then swap out with another project already working on!

Blessings everyday!!!!

I have been so busy with daily life, which l do with a thankful heart.  Everyday is a blessing esp if one has the privilege to see our grandsons moving forward in life. Just realized that the oldest is now married and has been transferred to another town and promoted. Next one finishes 2nd year of studies this week

 Next is now in 12th grade and last year of school and also got his drivers license and a truck. 

Then there is the youngest at 10 years old grade 4 and playing his first rugby match this afternoon. He is so excited and of course we have to go and support him. 

We are so blessed to have our daughter and her 2 sons just a few steps away. Our son and his family is over 1000km away. But technology keeps us connected!  Hubby had his 80th Birthday on the 21st April and we are truly blessed to have him healthy and of sound mind around to keep us in reality. 

Been working on 'Little Women the whole Easter weekend as a sal with a South Africa group of Facebook friends was really slow gowing because l do want the border to match up.

Put a ric rac border around. Need to find a charm to completely finish

Joined this interesting sized blocks together. The squares were made by my quilting friends 'The Ragdolls'. Didn't join classes to make squares as glue is involved and l hate sticky fingers.

Slowly moved up to left corner got some large colors done. The confetti takes so long so l needed a break after finishing the confetti on the previous page. I want to get to the top of the page soon.

Finished the chandelier blocks for our bed. Went thru my scraps and wow l found some lovely pieces just waiting to be used. Now to complete layout and join. 

Well l wish you all a creative blessed time till my next posting.

Take care and lots of 💕

 

Just daily things

I made a plan with the large water bottles. The plastic handles don't last long so l made a small bag with handles

 

Finished the stitching of this funky cat cross stitch and still have to get it fully finished.

Life has been busy!

We have been so busy lately. Can't believe Neil is done with the 1st term of Grade4. Time goes by so quickly. He also had his 10th Birthday. 

 

I am now working on my dragon. Nearly finished another page but have so much confetti that l need something with a bit more body.

 

Stìtched 70 blocks for my Chandelier quilt. Will lay it out soon.

Our vygies are just blooming so much just when we think they are done out come more flowers.

On our morning walk we saw this family taking their morning walk too. 

Got tired of all the confetti stitching and now starting this cute small cat project.

Kitty's Sewing Lesson completed!

Made this gorgeous pumkin!
