A bit of this and a bit of the other

What has been happening over the past couple of weeks other than the photo a day challenge.  Firstly some reading matters.  I always grab a pile of books when going to the library.   It does not take long to get through them.


Hubs and I celebrated Australia Day with a glass of bubbles.   As we were enjoying a toast to the Nation a couple of kookaburras were sitting in the gum tree nearby serenading  us.   Very fitting for Australia Day. 


Some sewing has been happening.  A finish....a small quilt using up some fabric with Disney princesses on it.


A list has been made for my up and coming stall in March.  I can cross 1 item off - heat packs.   They have been completed as you saw in a previous post.
 

I have since added snap top bags to the list.  

In keeping with the RSC colour for January two blue beanies have been knitted and one is still on the needles.


Now waiting to find out what the RSC colour for February is.

Back soon and in the meantime

Happy sewing all

Photo a day 31

The last prompt for this challenge is "A fruit" .   Mangoes are still in season so that was my choice for today's photo.


That is the end of the "Photo a Day"  challenge which I have enjoyed taking part in.    It has made me  stop and look at things in a different way.

Back soon and in the meantime

Photo a day 30

"A goal I'm working on"  was today's photo challenge.    I am currently working on finishing off 6 baby's bibs.    They need to be pressed, top sewn and have a snap fastener attached.


 Back soon and in the meantime

Photo a day 28

 "The Sky today" was nominated as today's photo.  This photo was taken at 6.45 am this morning.

It looks like another hot sunny day ahead of us.   A good day to start with a swim then head into the sewing room.

Back soon and in the meantime
