Busy as always!!!!

This is a Sunbonnet Sue quilt I made many years ago in  the hope of handing it down to
a granddaughter. Well a few years down the line, I have 4 handsome grandsons and no granddaughter.
So I have decided to donate this to a charity of my choice and see if they could generate some needed funds.

This is the back of my quilt and I am still working on my fusion quilt "Romance in Paris"
Have 50 blocks joined and now onto the next 50!!!

Main fabric blocks on the front and you can see where I got the theme from!

Tonic having a peek at the new quilt

Here is the first half of my quilt and I will be adding these pretty crocheted\
forms in the open blocks.

My fairy garden now completed so far but never know
 when some other member will come for a visit or stay!

Coco says Hi!!

I have a love of red and this bag is just what I need for all the stuff one
needs to have daily!!

Lucky also says Hi!!!

At last a bit of time for blogging!!!!!!

Well it was really a busy day for me, at last I can spend some time now to update my blog.

I have baked biscuits for the dogs, Washed the dogs bedding and also gave them a bath.

Then I did some of this Shisha embroidery and just love it. I added it to my crazy quilt which has a few more open spaces around. Hubby shakes his head at this because he says that the quilt is finished. hehehehe no its not I will be adding some more goodies to it as I go along. Also have to still add a photo of Neil our youngest grandson.

This is my square mirror embroidery, this technique is called shisha

A bit of this and that!

We had some lovely rain after a very hot  month and of course Lucky and Coco had lots of fun in the mud. I had to make a scrap quilt and the challenge was to use what l have! Well l finished the top at last. I am working on my next cross stitch sal ( stitch a long) with a group of friends. The Sewing Room by Joan Elliott.

Wild Flower time here in Clanwilliam.

This is what I love about the wild flower season,
which is in winter here in South Africa. Its all
for free.

Lovely waterfalls after the good rain we had.

Bella just loves going for drives 

Hmm my favorite color and these are not
 seen a
lot around here

Think Mr Turtle also went sight seeing,
 maybe just
having a
quick snack for the long haul back.

like when they are all together.
