Blog-a-long Day 6. - Photo's.

Ok so no sewing stuff to show off today, but thought I'd throw in a few photo's from our trip out and about today. I just love the vastness of the South Australian country side. We went on a picnic and lovely Sunday drive, down through Cape Jarvis, Rapid Bay, Normanville, Myponga, Sellicks Beach, Goolwa and then home to Victor Harbor. It was lovely.

Nothing to show today, although I can tell you that I'm madly working on the quilt cover, as it needs to be finished by Sunday next week. Hopefully will be back tomorrow with a few photos of it.

Advent Blog along Day 3.

Hey there... Nothing to show at the moment, although I did manage to get into Spotlight today and get some gorgeous material to make my step daughters bag for Christmas. Now to just work out what pattern to make for her, maybe I'll just stick with the backpack like I did for her big sister. This is the material that I got for her anyway...

Secret Santa.. - Day 2 Advent Blog along

This year I joined up to the EB Secret Santa for one last try. The last 3 years that I've been a part of it, my stuff has arrived about 4 weeks late, and really crappy $2 shop stuff. I know that it's the thought that counts and all that, but after the time and effort that I put in to all my presents, I still felt a little miffed by it all. So I thought I'll give it one more try, and OMG I'm sooooo glad that I did. I got the most amazing presents this year. So a huge thank you to ~Jane05~, I don't know if you read this, but if you do, THANK YOU so much, the present was absolutely amazing.

These are the Hair clips that I got

The beading that I'm going to put on the bag when it's done

And last but not least the material that I was sent.

And just because, she also sent the kids a packet of chocolate. I am so totally over the moon with what I received this year, thank you once again to ~Jane05~ if you read this.

Christmas Advent blog a long December 1st...

Wow who can believe that we are here on the 1st December.. How quick has this year gone???

Well I've got another 2 things almost of my list. I've cut out part of the Rock n Roll Skirts for the girls. Due to the majority of the back of the pattern written in double dutch, both Mum and I under guessed the amount of material that I needed. So I only got 1mtr of each material instead of 2. I've cut out half the skirts each, and will head to Spotlight on Thursday to get some more, and finished them off. Hopefully I'll get them finished in time, as the girls are arriving next Sunday night. :)

Christmas Blog Along.

Ok so I followed Skip's lead and joined up to this Blog-a-long. From the 1st of December, the aim is for me to post a blog everyday, until the 24th December. Let's see how this goes. I've never done anything like this before, so it will be interesting for me.
