A Finish

 The Aussie Hero quilt was finished this morning and has gone in the post, I hope it gets to Germany before the recipient comes home

The request was for the German flag colours, plane silhouette, and the eagle, plus his dates for being away - it is a bright one!!
It is a very hot day here for us, 34 deg C, I am waiting for the rain to come 😞 then maybe it will be more comfortable.
On my way home from the PO today I collected the dogs so they could come for a visit
Tira wants to sit outside and when she is outside wants to come in!!

Hank has found the toy box so he is happy!
We had a challenge at Guild last month , we were given fabric to make a table mat
I added the green fabric to get the mat wide enough and added a zip pocket as Jo does, didn't do it as well as Jo does but it still works. I have been searching for some Xmas earrings or something to add to the zip pull, the berries/bells I have are too small - I will continue searching.
I am off to the other toom now to enjoy the cool of the air conditioning.
Happy stitching.
