My last GDITC- Nundle project is finished ( I'm not counting the punchneedle as it was about technique!). The Leanne Beasley piece was lovely & fun to personalise...I think it is becoming a cushion...it would look nice with the red polka dot as binding on a flanged cushion I think! It really was great to be able to add stitchery touches to make it my own.

A lovely day here...the sheets are flapping on the line...hopefully those that have been flooded are beginning to dry out.

I have a lovely rose out...it was a gift from my friend Penny...another English Rose!

Hope you have some stitching time today!

A peek at a new project.

It was time to construct Rosalie's pretty sewing bag from GDITC at Nundle. I was really happy with the stitchery...I like to use a variety of stitches to give texture & interest...also added a whimsical touch or two to make it my "own". My mum had been given some old ric-racs which she passed on to me, so some green was added at the base for a fun touch.

Toot, toot...it's the parcel delivery with a "squishie" for me!!!!! I love those squishie parcels that I get in the mail...the excitement of new fabric arriving...isn't it lovely? This scrumptious treat came from the lovely girls at Provincial Patch...thanks...I love it. I have some plans for it...but for the moment it is just nice to admire & dream!

A trip out for coffee with my DH & darling daughter made the day a real treat...the usual nasties (aka ironing, washing & housecleaning) are waiting for my undivided attention from tomorrow...oh well today was lovely!
