Day 365

The last minute of the last day of the year of photos. I was in bed already because I'm exciting like that. And to add to the excitement my dear husband was in another state.

Happy New Year!

Thanks all for following along. I wonder what 2011 will bring?!

Day 364

Arrived at mum and dad's place in Nambour reading to get to work on the Kitchen Tea.

See MtHanded soon for details.

Day 363

Hair pieces for bridesmaids & bride. Plus 2 for the mums to wear as brooches. We watched while Made of Honour with Patrick Dempsey while I stitched these. Very appropriate movie for a maid of honour! Oh yes, and Han gets credit for sewing on the beads and clips. Better not forget!!

Day 362

Happily put to work on final touches for Hanny's wedding. Much chatter, decorating, trips to the craft stores and forgetting to take photos happened over the next few days...

Day 361

Flying to Queensland via Sydney. Qantas - that was the tastiest, healthiest food you have ever given me. Please have it all again next time.

(This was the first of 5 flights backwards and forwards for me in 2 weeks. Happy to keep my feet on the ground for a while now)

Day 360

Ok. Taking this photo was hard. We had heaps of wind, bright sun and a literal plague of locusts to work around. I wish I had taken more, better, nicer photos. But I didn't. And I didn't take a single photo of the back. Guess I was just too excited about finishing my first ever quilt!!

Day 359

Christmas day! I made a special request of my talented father in law for christmas this year - wooden spools for all of my lace. He made me 15 in different sizes and colours. Are they not the most lovely things? I am very blessed to have such clever families.

Day 358

A set of 8 nap-mats. Invented and made by me. Napkins that are the size and shape of place-mats so they can be used for both.

Given to my sister Jes for Christmas.

Day 357

2 days work finished. Read it here.

Day 356

Three Kings. Three days until Christmas.

Day 355

Quality viewing while I finished of the last of my christmas gifts. I just love a good excuse to watch good movies. A semi decent excuse to watch semi decent movies is fine with me too!

P.S. High School Musical 1, 2 & 3? Love!

A few movies about grief here. Not intentional but interesting none the less.

DAy 354

Delicious stone fruit in season! yummy, yummy.

Day 353

Morgan went as far as Horsham with us and stayed with Daisy for some wild fun while we went to the wedding. Their favourite game is to chase the ball. Our favourite game is to try an trick them about which way it's going to go. So intense!

Day 352

Congratulations Ben & Carly! Your Wedding Festival was wonderful as you are. Well worth the 12 hours drive each way and the weeks of work put into the love quilt. Our prayers and love are with you. xxx

Day 351

Driving into Adelaide after 12 hours in the car it was wonderful to stop at Mt Lofty and see a tiny bit of the ocean.

Day 350

The finished Love Quilt for our dear friends Carly and Ben.

Day 349

Joel building the frame for my all consuming project.

Day 348

5 movies and a few tv shows later I finished hand stitching together 75 3inch square photos.

Day 347

Wrapped and ready.

(Although a whole lot more went under the tree after this!)

Day 346

10kilograms is a lot to carry around. Feeling much now I am that much lighter. It was amazing to hold this bag and think about it. A Biggest Loser moment!
