Thankyou to all who have tried to find my dear jane fabric for me - here is a better photo - it is navy (well actually indigo) with cream flowers - on the reverse the flowers are white. Hope this helps!!!
My Mum Mum was a quiet achiever, going through life with all its ups and downs with little complaining and always enjoyed the escape of a good book. My Mum was lovely – she cared so much about her family and so loved to hear about all our goings on Although in later life she had health issues – she faced them all bravely and worked to find out the best way to live her best life and bore them with dignity. Her life was one of change and she changed and adapted with the changes. Pamela Blanche Geoghegan was born in Bendigo on the 30th December 1938 (yes she just missed her birthday this year) to loving parents Stanley Norman Geoghegan and Emily Ada Blanche Pattinson. The year previously her brother Brian Stanley was born but he died shortly after birth. When she was only 6 years old her father Stan passed away at the age of 30 and for the next 13 years it was just Pam and her mother Blanche living together and they got on famously as Mum would say. The first change in her life. N
This week has been so very hard. My beautiful Mum went to be with Jesus on Thursday 21st December. I am so very grateful that I was able to sit with her for countless hours in her last days - boy did I talk some rubbish to her as she slept and I embroidered and I wouldnt pass it up for the world. Now we are in the midst of making "arrangements" and I am so very aware that Mum would want me to get it "right". She was definate on that when organising my stepfather Austens funeral and Id like to be able to do the same. Because of Christmas and New Year and holidays etc her funeral will be on Tuesday 2nd January at 11am at AG Adams Funerals in Kerang and then she will be joining Austen at Kerang Cemetry. I miss her so - all the phone calls, visiting her, spending time with her (and also the other residents and staff at Cohuna village) A large part of my life and days is now gone and Ill need to work out what the new routine is. I do plan on going back to the villa
So after an awesome week away from the farm we are home! And what a shock the weather has been!! Frosty and freezing and not that enjoyable - take me back to Queensland! Farmwise we hit the ground running - pregnancy testing of the herd to check who is still in calf and starting joining those that aren't by artificial insemination. Its a super busy time - for the first time ever though calving has finished before we start the next joining which is a goal Ive had for a very long time and its good to get that done! So.... back to our usual programming on what Ive achieved craft wise and reading wise - here we go! Firstly, if you followed our car journey to Queensland - you would know that I started a scarf from sock yarn leftovers and Im pleased to say it's finished! The yarn is all leftovers from an advent kit from last year that I made a shawl from - and there was a lot of leftovers. It's also a great easy knit as its knitted in the round so all the ends are nicely tucked

Is it from Sanshi? And 'real' Japanese material?
