Christmas came and went, we had a full house with our DS and his
partner, my dad and his wife + the usual residents of our house
Walli's first Christmas, the Christmas Tree was a great
source of entertainment for her
Henry loves Christmas.........
My crazy kids
I made Zucchini Pickles, Chilli Jam and Tomato Relish
they are divine
I've worked on my Confetti quilt
Some of what I worked on during 2016
Confetti just needs the borders quilted, I'm just going
to crosshatch them, I must say I did enjoy the
hand quilting process
Steam Punk, I have approx 15 blocks left to make
then I can start sewing it together
The colours Ive used this year!
We've had cruise ships visiting
Mary Tolman progress being made
I changed the cream hexies out for Kaffe Fassett
Silver Spots, it looks much better
Miss 15 says Henry looks like a loaf of bread
we went camping for a week, lots of progress made
on Mary Tolman
We fished
we read books, played cards, I stitched by LED Light
DH and Miss 15 packing up the trailer, I don't assist when
it comes to setting it up/packing it up.
The resident alpaca's, one of these chased Miss 15 and I
on our set up day, its a very stressful process
Mary Tolman
I love this place

my crochet again, this is my Attic 24 Hexagon blanket

Im waiting for he post man to deliver this pattern
'Majestic Lanterns'
and these luscious yarns are also on their way
Bertha has a new permanent home, where we love to go
camping, dh has been working hard on getting her
ready for us to use, we taken out the double bed and
put a queensize bed in with storage underneath, he's fixed
the small leaks, windows, fly screens, he's wired it up for 12vt.
We still need to get a new 12v/gas fridge, some lighting strips,
curtains and gather the supplies we need for a solid annex
but Bertha will be back in use by Easter. We can't wait
My crochet hexagon blanket will suit Bertha perfectly
