Another one done

I thought maybe it was about time to update. been pretty slack, very slack LOL, it's been 6 weeks since my last update. not a lot happens round here.
Pauly I have finished another months ATC's, for the family & friends swap, they are on there way to you.

My quilt is well under way, a pic below of progress, a lot happier with it now, since taking this pic I have put the border on it, but haven't taken a photo yet, I'll get some when the sun shines again. if ever. Don't know what happened to that lovely spring weather we were having, winter is back, it's cold wet & miserable again, a few more days of it is forecast.



The next pic is the original design that i didn't like, so you can see how awful it looked before all that unpicking & remaking, not to mention having to buy more fabric, even the yellow centres of the stars look a different colour when removed from that awful purple, but they are the squares that i unpicked from the 9 patch blocks & used in the Ohio star blocks



Had a good day in Albury last Sunday, most of the family met in Albury, sadly Vic's crew couldn't make it this time, we met at the the park by the river, hung out there for a while, then went & had lunch at the cafe at Peards Nursery, I think everyone had a good feed, the desserts looked so yummy, but most of us couldn't fit it in after the main course. It was great seeing them all, we don't see nearly enough of the family these days. Those gorgeous great grand babies of mine are growing so fast. So are the grand babies, all towering over me, & got their licenses or learners permits, they make me feel short & old. LOL. I forgot my camera as usual. Pauly don't forget to send me some of the photos you took, PLZ




I guess I better stop rambling on & go to bed it should have warmed up by now, thought i was finished with the electric blanket for this year, I live in Batlow so I should know better.




Bye for now, til next time Helen
