i wish this my quilt

this is the dolls quilt i made the other day while i was sick. im pretty jelous of thet doll rite now because my own quilt isnt quite happening just now. I could tell the kids were impressed with it by the way they swiftly emptied out the cot contents, tipped it upside down and stood ontop of it, shortly after me enthusiasticly showing it to them. my efforts seem all worthwile:)

playroom

sorry bout this up the wrong way pic, i dont know how to rotate it
this is the kids playroom on a good day(presently its sprinkled with rice, various craft materials and pretty much all round trashed)

my practice quilt


Heres my garden, where i spend lots of my time. I absolutely love being outside amongst nature with my shoes off and dirty hands and clothes. Today i climbed a huge tree at the park to get a balldown. I ended up itchy all over from some kind of prickle that got all through my clothes but it was lots of fun:)
part of the back yard. the kids love playing in the boat, eating sandwiches in the boat and laying ond the floor of it with their legs up on the seat(very cute to see:) but i get lots of complaints that its not in water. Sure, ill get right onto fixing that guys!

and heres my favourite spot... no explination needed

yay for photos!!!

these are some of the materials ive got so far for my quiltim also doing some embroiderd squares. This is based on one of my favourite art journal pages. it makes me feel so happy that i wanted to see it every day:)im having fun finding material for my quilt on ebay (sure beats the granny materials sold localy)
