OOOoo so lovely

Ooooo I dont know about any of you but I am a huge fan of Bronwyn Hayes designs.
I have made several of them and enjoy every minute stitching them.
Here is the link to her new bom (block of the month) and I am going to stitch them for sure.

hall up a lot. heheheh
All the items at the back are all
my own work.On either side over the tables
is a friend's quilts, she prefers
machine stitching. I am totally
hand stitching.
The centre table has a few mini quilts
done by Pauline van Blerk.

Just everyday life!!!!

Well sometimes a grandmother has to show off her grandkids and of course the fourlegged ones and then some nice handcraft. The youngest one of the three, Liam is just too fast too have a photo taken of him.

 Now if I could have another 3 nice quiet Saturdays to myself I can get the whole 40 blocks done. Sigh

This is my corner blocks with the hexigans
in.

Lots done today!!!!!

I have been very busy today and did quite a bit of things around the house. Been working on getting these dolls dressed before winter, which seems it is never going to come.
I even burnt my fingers when thinking of other stuff and not concentrating on taking a roasted chicken out of the oven. hehehehe
I also got to help a friend that wants to get to know how to work a computer and that is very interesting
because then I also have to think about it too. We do not have any training institution around here. So its a case of helping each other.

Got all these sets finished
today

Two dolls left
to keep me company

Ready to be dressed

Hubby's parents photo is
getting embroidered

A gift and a bit of stitching!!!

Made 4 of these
hexagons for a
row by row wallhanging

Did this today
and I think it
came out
beautiful

Last but not least!!
I received these lovely
goodies.
It was a blog comment that I made
and it all came from Marelize at
