And then to the left
Would you believe that I was standing in the middle of the same road in the botanical gardens of Sydney. Spring is such a lovely time of year in Sydney.....everything is coming out in flower with warmer weather, brighter mornings and nights. A walk through the gardens is always a pleasant experience.
After all that walking it is nice to be able to sit down and enjoy a coffee and cake before setting off on the rest of the journey.
And then make my way up to see the annual flower display at David Jones.
My latest read is.
However I am finding this book a bit confusing as there are quite a lot of characters with multiple relationships.
I did manage to tick another item off the to do list during the week.
I have a knitting friend who needs a gift so with that in mind a rummage through my stash revealed these fabrics that I will turn into a lined drawstring bag with a boxed bottom which can be used to put her knitting in when going on a cruise at the end of the month.
I could say that I am very clever and knitted this beanie using fair isle stitch
But the truth is that the ball of yarn next to it is called "magic stripes" and it is certainly is magic. It does not matter what pattern you knit it always comes out with the stripes in place. Very clever.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy sewing all

Love the knitting fabric. How appropriate for the bag you want to make.
That yarn is like the sock wool. Amazing
The gardens look lovely and the flowers stunning. xx
The gardens look wonderful Karen and the flowers are stunning. That wool is great, gives such a good pattern. I found that book a bit confusing too. Perfect fabric for the knitting bag.
so lovely to have garden walks at this time of year... love the flowers in DJ...

The Botanic Gardens are always a lovely respite from the busy city. It would be so nice to see the DJs flower display. Thanks for sharing. Your friend will love her knitting bag.
Looks like a lovely place to wander around and perfect weather too
