Yesterday and today

Yesterday I was going to ride my bike down to the PO but the tyre appears to have a puncture, so I walked instead, it was a beautiful day, cool but calm and sunny,

As blogger and the lap top were not cooperating yesterday it is now Sunday, but above was from my Friday walk, 
the pelicans were having their morning wash.


The Aussie hero quilt is finished, the theme for this one was medical and Kiwi. 

Yesterday I went up to Gisborne for a bloggers meet up, autumn has come to Gisborne, always love this street with the big oak trees,
our swap theme for this meet up was a mini quilt with a sewing theme
Wendy is in behind here with her swap from Ann

Lyn with her swap from Margaret

Shez with her swap from Kim

Ann with her swap from Shez,
Kim with her swap from Robyn

Marg with her swap from Wendy, look at all those tiny pieces!!

This must have been the working side of the table, although lots of laughing and chatter was happening!!

a thoughtful moment happening here Marina???

Elyte has a beautiful project underway here

this is the swap Robyn received from Colleen

I had great fabric in it!! I have yet to take a photo of the swap I received from Lyn and I forgot to take a photo of what I made...will find one on another blog somewhere. We had a wonderful day, it was as always, good to catch up with everyone.


I had a quick stop in Geelong on the way home to stretch the legs, the sun was beautiful on the water this afternoon.

Happy mothers day to all the mothers in blog land.
