scatterdays - w

First week of scatterydays and blogger wont let me directly up load photos so Ive had to resort to using old photos and copying and pasting the url's


Expensive - water - without water we cannot function as a farm and its a much needed (but costly) commodity
Music - walking along behind the cows listening to all the different noises that they make
Exciting - walking - my granddaughter Maddison is learning to walk and using whatever she can to help achieve it!
WIP (work in progress) - I'm working on the "love is" block of the month which Im really enjoying and actually managing to (almost) keep up with the blocks as they arrive each month to do be done.

Nice W collection.

Watching a child learn to walk is an inspiring lesson in overcoming adversity. No matter how many times they fall, they are determined to keep at it until it works.

Well done. I also considered using water as the most expensive.

I absolutely love seeing pictures of Oz, a country very dear to my heart. Your Scatterdays pictures are great, especially the one of your granddaughter using a vacuum cleaner (I think!) to help her walk. Precious! So glad you're in on this fun, photo-taking activity!

Isn't it amazing how insular people are. I agree water is expensive but living in a city we only see it as increasing in cost rather than something that is a major expense for many rural people.
I love your cows. It is always so relaxing when I encounter them on the road to/from work..defintely slows the day down.

Having a giggle when I think about some of the sounds a cow might make!! I too had water as my expensive category. I am dreading my water bill this quarter and mine is just to keep the garden alive, not a whole farm

Mums eulogy

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...

Ive had a very special finish and its a quilt that I love, I wish I didnt have to make but Im so glad that I have When mum went to heaven, the online quilting group that I am a member of - Southern Cross Quilters had the members make me heart blocks in rememberance of my dear mum. I asked for rainbow colours for the hearts as one of mums favorite songs was Somewhere Over the Rainbow. This is the result and its it lovely..... Its taken me a while to be able to sew them together and to quilt and bind it - I needed to wait for the right time Yes it was sad but also so very healing and it is one very special quilt that will hold a very special place in my heart Thank you to each and every one of the SCQuilters who made me a block Your love shines through Also PS the fabric I used as the borders and the backing fabrics were mums as was the label panel - that felt right
