Matts friend for a few hours

This is or shall I say Nala a Nyala buck that was rejected by it mother and SIL brought it home to
see if it could be saved and Matts was so glad that he had a new friend.


























































Here they settled in for the night.

the next morning and its was

still alive.

Well sad to say but it did not survive and died a

short time after Matts left for school.

Ice cream container

I made this from a pattern in our local

"Stitches" Magazine and it came out great.

Ball crazy

I have just learned how to make these

polystirene balls and this is a 40cm one.

Just love it.

Here is the next border

This is what the next border is going to look like,

it is just pinned to see if my idea is going to work.

It did and I will now continue with blue and then

orange to brighten it up.

Country Music Show

We had a fab time at the Bushman's Cave last night.

It was a country music show with Cheree and Tommy Dell.

Well I went just to see Cheree, she is great and her voice is

exactly the same on and off the stage. Tommy Dell well he is

getting old hehehehehe

Also had a great cowboy meal but most of all it was

with relaxing in the open night air with all the music around.

Some stitching.

This is the centre of a quilt I am making for

a friend and below is a milk jug doily for

daughter.

Some fabric I bought at the vendors at the Fynbos Quilt Show

which is running till tomorrow afternoon

Finished!!!!

I have made 2 pincushions for me and my friend.

they are just so cute and also nice and big.

Quilt Show August 2010

Here are the pictures of our quilt show and some of the members

sorry about the poor quality. And I am not around as I was the one

taking the pictures.

Begining a new quilt

This is the first block of a new quilt that
I am doing. I have been collecting some
fabrics for it for sometime now. As you all
know the collecting takes time. hehehehe













This is what the block looks like when
all four sections are together.
It is from an American Quilt Mag
called Forest Wildflowers by
Deb Karasik and Janet Mednic
am not doing the quilt exactly
the same but will see where this one
takes me.

Blocks together!!

These blocks were a swap (2008) from my

Australian friends and it was great fun and

very interesting. I just love them all.

At last I have them joined and now for

the quilting and binding. At last!!!!!!!

More finishes!!!

I finished these two stitcheries from Willowberry designs today.
At last I have got time to just sit infront of the fire place and stitch.
It was great. I am now up to date with this bom and am hoping to
get another bom done tomorrow but dont think so as it has lots of
needleturn applique, which I just love to do.
