My memories

.
My quilt is really simple - what I started off with all those years ago in Hobart. It was the first block we did at night classes and it brought back lots of memories of that class and that time in my life. Really loved those classes and all the handwork, which seemed so much in the first few weeks and then it became a breeze. Still love hand work. Joy was such a great teacher.

Next month

I have agonized over this word....Its a bit different than what we have been doing....If you dont approve I can select another!

The word is Mandala....good luck all!

Memories

Well here is my offering....not overly artistic but it did mean a hunt thro some old photos leading to some nice memories for me.Christmas is often a part of my happy memories so I went with that.Also I framed it so it looks like a photo...the obvious source of reviving memories.The five photos are Xmas at my brothers place possibly the last when we were all together,my parents ,Greg and I with our two children on holiday in HongKong,a santa photo of my kids from long ago and a photo of the three grandchildren on the way to Xmas assembly last year.

Cant wait to see yours!And I hope someone worked out how to represent smells which I have now realised evoch almost as many memories as photos do...at least for me!

Revealing

Yes you do have to midnight - I don't have to sit up and wait do I? Mine is photographed and supposedly emailed to me but Ryan hasn't got round to that bit yet and has gone out so will be lunchtime ish for mine. Doesn't matter by the sounds of things!! You'll be too busy to look.
I have got all inspired again and have almost got 1 quilt cut out and found another one for scraps - 1 1/2" strips and it looks great so I went to Big W today and got some flatish containers to put the cut ones intoseparately so I am ready to go. My Christmas pressies for the goirls is probably close to 3/4 done and what is wrong with me??? And to top it off Ian is cooking tea? Does it get any better than this?

Tomorrow

WE have to midnight...right?
And I may need every minute! I have a fine collection of bits thus far......except I cant find the dark brown ..it must be here somewhere.
Cant wait to see yours tho......

Where has October gone?

Can someone tell me where October has gone - did I sleep too long and miss most of it? It is already the 19th. My saving grace is that there is 31 days in October!!!! I know exactly what I'm doing so that isn't a problem but the usual thing of actually getting started is the problem. But I know I must!!! Maybe tonight I will start as I have finished Angeleigh's quilt and some Christmas stars that I only need to paint. Tonight is the night!!!!!
