Another hot day,
but it is summer.
I have been staying indoors trying to getting the most quilts finished before the New Year.
Once quilted I had to decide on binding.
Hmm, plain or pattern....I opted for pattern.
What do you think?
I thought I would share this from Twitter.
I decided to join Twitter to keep tabs on this bush fire on Christmas Day.
A hot, busy, sad Christmas this year.
The last few days have been so hot,
hot
and last night bush fires were close.
So I put my quilt on a table
sat in the path of the air conditioner
and stitched.
Cooler tonight. I might even have to put the quilt on my lap.
Well in 2 weeks time I hope to be relaxing after my big lunch.
In the meantime I am trying to be slow and steady
in my Christmas preparations.
Today I made some cards!
I bought these plain from Kmart.
It was the old fashioned envelopes I wanted.
I thought they would be good for my journal to keep things I don't want to glue.
I hope my friends love these envelopes like I do.
Now, what else did I have to do......
Well it's that time of year isn't it
when a sense of panic can set in.
I have ordered my Christmas turkey and picked out a ham.
Maybe I should think about a cake....
while I'm doing a bit of kimono unpicking
I am thinking about a cake.
And I have been thinking while I do a bit of hand quilting.
Nearly there.
And I have basted this quilt ready for hand quilting.
Maybe I should do some tidying up next.
