This and that

 The weeks fly by and I need to catch up! I have been stitching and have continued working slowly on my Garden quilt. I am enjoying working on this.



I have also finished this cute stitching pouch which is another gorgeous design by Anni Downs.


We were very impressed to see this gorgeous stitching that Jayne is working on! It is just gorgeous.


It has also been book week last week. The miss wasn't really well but managed to be at school for the parade. She looked so cute in the lovely dress that Mummy had made and an old raffia hat that I made many years ago. One of the big boys and his class in Perth dressed up as Disney princesses or characters!!!



On Wednesday we had breakfast our in Gold Creek and enjoyed seeing this yarn bombing outside the new wool shop.

Perth

 I was very lucky to be in Perth when the Craftalive quilt show was on. It was a nice show with quite a few shops that I hadn't seen before. I especially liked Bizzy Bee Patchwork which had lovely quilts and projects made with Japanese Yarn dyed fabrics. I enjoyed the quilts as well.












And to finish, just a few of the boys playing soccer and birthday Boy Ben.




We were very lucky to have Amy come back with us for work and we surprised her sister! She got a shock but was thrilled. We all loved having Amy here for the week.

Perth

 A few weeks ago we headed to Perth to visit the family again. It was lovely to see everyone and enjoy some good times together. We all went to the light show at Kings Park. We did get rained on a few times but it was a fun activity anyway.












We had a day trip into the city for morning tea and also visited Guildford for lunch. Adventures are to be had on the bus and train!

On Saturday we all went out for breakfast at the golf club and had a game of mini golf too.


Our Benny was performing a solo on Sunday at his school. He did very well. Here he is practising and then performing.
