Eggs, chickens, rabbits and leaves!!

Here I am..... over here, yes it's me - I'm back!!

Actually I haven't really been anywhere. It's school holidays and I have been just a tad busy with the children. And we haven't really done anything in particular but I do have a few bits and pieces to share with you.

First of all I have a couple of Easter photos.

The Easter Bunny left lots of yummy chocolate in the garden........

.. which Daphne thought was completely fantastic!

Mmmmmm choccie

Then we enjoyed a delicious lamb roast and chocolate cake at Mum's with the family.

And speaking of bunnies, our friend Sophia got a lovely white rabbit for her Birthday so we decided to give her a little soft one.

The pattern is from here. Very cute and very easy! Happy 8th Birthday Sophia!

On the sewing front I have been mainly doing some hand quilting on the train quilt. As the lovely recipient's Mummy reads this blog I can't show it to you. Hopefully they won't have to wait too much longer.

I also made some aprons for the Stitches and Craft show to demonstrate how one pattern can be done in several different ways.

And for any Melbourne people who would like to know how to make a simple apron - look here. I'm doing an apron workshop!

Cathy is also running a workshop for her lovely children's clothes which is going to be hugely popular if the interest at the shop is any indication.

So did I tell you it's the school holidays?

Did I tell you it's Autumn?

This ......

Starting and Finishing

Sometimes you put off starting things and sometimes you put off finishing things. I am guilty of both. So I have decided to dive right in and get this blog started. If anything I am sure it will help me get some things finished! Here are some Easter treats I started and the family finished.



Mmmm yummy!!!
