Always wonder how cats just appear and sit on a quilt when one has just put on the floor to see how it looks so far!
Am a quilter, crafter which includes embroidery, beading, crochet and knitting. Just love keeping myself busy with crafty things.

So pretty!
Finished this today and love it! Lots of French knots, beads, crochet work on a piece of batik fabric. I picked up the broken shell on Shelly's Beach, just a short from our house.

Daily life and having fun!
Well I have had a busy week and needed some stitching time this Saturday afternoon.
Hubby has to go to have the second cataract removed by specialist in Port Elizabeth and I have to go with to drive back as he is not allowed to drive after the treatment.
So I have to wait in the car, I am not allowed in with him, because of the covid regulations. Grrr!!! anyway I have now prepped the hexi flowers and leaves to be appliqued and it will keep me busy for a while. Having fun with this wall hanging and changing it to include lots of my favorite techniques. I have added lots of hexi's and stars. Using all left overs of other projects I completed recently. I am just adding stuff as I go along. Next will be the small flowers to the leaves that I embroidered, but am unsure what I will be adding. Then onto a border, quilting and binding.
Saw this on our walk today in someones garden and just had to have a photo of the beauty of this flower.

Our Hibiscus!!!
Our hibiscus is flowering again as always!!
So thankful for the rain that we have had recently!!
Am busy with all my small projects and getting some done. Have lots of items that are nearing completion and will show when done. Also sorting through the cupboards after Daughter moved out into her own cute home. The house seems awfully empty now after being overfilled with daughters treasures. hehehe we have to get used to having such an empty house. Not easy but I am getting all my stuff around and the house is starting to look colorful again.Hubby went to have a cataract removed yesterday and getting the other eye done on the 12th April.

Saw some embroidery with shells on instagram, sorry can't remember who, but it got me thinking l can use any broken shell. Picked up a few on the beach the other day. So tried it and its so beautiful. Still want to add some more beads. Seems my mind has been working overtime to get this to work.
