You enjoy romantic poetry and novels, and play the pianoforte beautifully. To boot, your singing voice is captivating. You feel deeply, and love passionately

For those regular readers of my blog you will know that I am slowly working on a dear jane quilt - we I DID have three rows joined together but I wasnt happy with them. BUT I looked at Bonnie Hunters website www.quiltville.com and saw her storm at sea setting - and fell in love with it sooooooooooo lots of unpicking and rejigging and I have two rows back together - not as wide as last time - I am going to make a "smaller" jane - 8 x 8

My best girlie friend Jasmine (MBGF) brought her new bloke Andrew up to meet us all last weekend and for us to "Check Him Out" - here is the report on him....LOL Gary - "he is quite nice....easy to talk to....and fitted in easily....likes a bloke that can carry his own conversation and not have to be "looked after" all the time. Thought you two looked very happy together and comfortable in each others company. Dont think he understand about the "can I keep him" tho.... Oh!!! and he said "why did Jasmine bring you MORE scraps - arent you getting rid of yours" - my answer " of course Im getting rid of mine to make room for Jasmines!!!!!!" Megan - they were very lovely dovey and Jasmine is fun she REALLY looked at my scrapbooking stuff and I dont know why she didnt like the colours I picked for you Mum Sarah - hes very nice!!!!!

Here is a photo of two postcards I made for the Stashbusters group Winter wonderland postcard swap - they both went to America. My first attempt at this so crossing fingers that they are ok and "acceptable".

Another one finished!!!! This is a disappearing nine patch made from a pack of fabrics from the climbing jacobs ladder fabric range - lovely and bright and funky. I gave it to our next door neighbours Ron and Myra who are heading up to Central Australia next Tuesday to relieve a couple that are pastoring there. They will be away for at least two months - hopefully this quilt might keep them warm on a cold night.
