QUILT.
| The embroidered quilt now quilted. |
This took up quite a bit of my time last week, but is finally off the machine & ready for binding. Not the best photo as it has been raining all day and the light is awful. Some rather expletive words came whilst trying to get patterns in the right place, but I am now pleased with it.
Saturday I sewed these two crochet hook holders, which are quite quick to do. Some time this week, they will be posted to Amy and Aimee, who both love to crochet.
Sunday saw us head off to Rosebud, which is a bay-side suburb of Melbourne on the Mornington Peninsular (maybe one day I should put a small map on my blog, "somehow"), had some lunch and a quick walk along the shore line, discovering these bits and pieces and taking some photos. We'd really been cooped up inside for too long with all this miserable weather, so the sea air cleared our heads. After our walk we headed to my quilty friend's place and had a lovely catchup.
| A pearly shell. |
| A dead puffer fish (we think). There were quite a few washed up on the shore in various stages of decay. I found they are quite an odd, but fascinating fish. |
| Another "I think" is a cold climate coral. |
| Can you see all the little shells attached to this piece of seaweed? Hubby said it reminded him of a necklace. |
Well, another week gone and another one on it's way. I've just put the sixth shop quilt on the machine, very large,so a busy few days ahead.
Hope you all have a good week and take care.
Susan.
