Coaches Gifts

What a great grand final....after two lots of time on, Miss J's team hit the lead & won by one goal. The above gifts were created for coaches in appreciation of the time taken out of their busy routines to spend with the kids.

Cheers....Jane.

Property Purchase

Back tracking again.....with this property settled at the end of September.  We are busy spending our spare time cleaning & painting.  Fingers crossed we'll be in before Christmas.

Cheers.....Jane

Back Tracking

 

 

 

Seems I've lost October in a haze of  business that has kept me away from posting, so over the next few days I've decided to try back tracking a little, beginning with this ironing board cover.....a little embarrassing that it got into such a state before a replacement was created, but I guess you can say that I got the most out of it!  A new shabby padded cover was created at the end of September.

Cheers.....Jane.

Coffee Corner

During the year I was given some extra furniture, which hibernated in the shed during Winter. Recently we had a bit of a change around at the back of the house & created this little corner, perfect for a relaxing coffee on a sunny Spring afternoon.  The blue spotted pot, once fill with pansies is now home to a succulent & some special rocks collected by Master N during Lapidary at school last year.  The old table (which extends each end) was once covered with paint splashes, has had a good clean (thanks Mr Sheen, you removed all the old paint specks) and now stands ready for many a Summer barbecue.  

Now maybe some sewing time!!

Cheers....Jane.

Sunbonnet Sue

This little lass has been hanging around in the sewing room with a group of ruffian UFO'S.  Now in order for her to keep better company I gave her a makeover, making her a little more presentable.  She now has a new job in the sewing room, keeping it tidy!!!

Cheers.....Jane.

FIS 2011 BOM

 

 

 

Last weekend saw me stipple & bind this little quilt.  It's our on-line stitching groups 2011 block of the month.  I  tried a slightly wavy border for a change, and quite enjoyed it.  Now I can focus on a new project without feeling guilty!!

Cheers....Jane.
