And the rains came

I woke this morning to the sound of rain.    Yes rain not showers or a storm  but heavy steady much needed rain.

As we are all well aware Australia has been in deep drought for many many years and finally the  monsoonal rains have arrived which will hopefully  put out all the fires that have been burning out of control for many months and start to fill up our much depleted dams.

My garden will be so thankful for the long deep drink that it is receiving as we are on quite strict water restrictions and a bucket of water can only go so far besides the fact that buckets of water are quite heavy to cart around the garden so it was a job that I only did once a week.

I will need to dust off my umbrella when venturing out.

Needless to say that I will be heading to my sewing room later this afternoon to make a start on FNwF and finish off my experiment.    Well that is the plan.

Back soon and in the meantime

Happy sewing all
