Catching up once again

 Time is roaring past for me this year, here we are June already.

Things have been happening here

This little quilt is finished

This little quilt is having it's binding sewn on today

This KOGO blanket is finished, another is having squares sewn together

another small quilt is finished

time has been spent at the playground (this is from a few weeks ago, I forgot the camera yesterday)

Here he is with a new haircut, he got half a hair cut and decided that was enough, so Mum had to try and finish it off at home. His jumping has really improved and he loves the trampoline.

Last weekend I was up early to go to the Colac Quilt In

A glimpse of the sun before the rain came

The first speaker was Emma Jean Jansen and she showed us many of her beautiful quilts and explained her method of making and quilting. I didn't get quilt photos as we were at the side and they whipped through quickly.

The second speaker was Jodi Carlton from RicRac, she was a very entertaining speaker and her felt toys are just beautiful.

I was sitting at the table on the very end here #13.

These were the traders and yes some purchasing was done!

Lovely ladies I was sitting with, Karen and Sue

The lake as I was heading back to the car. The Quilt In is held at the Bowling Club and it is a great venue.

Last week I had a couple of late afternoon walks

The water was very calm and quiet

and I watched the moon come up over the water

Last week we also had the grand fur babies staying

One ChowChow hiding in the plant!

Today I sewed and unsewed the foundation paper pieced block three times - it is finally finished, not perfect as it should be, but finished.

It was quite a challenge.

Sashiko is still being done, has taken a back seat to the KOGO blankets just now but more will happen next week.

I decided to introduce some colour. I also am not happy with the thread that came with the panel, cotton Japanese Sashiko  thread as it splits and doesn't look good, still thinking about that one, any suggestions will he gratefully received.

Another little quilt finished.

I think that is enough for me just now, we are off to Queensland next week to try and find some warmer weather.

Happy stitching.
