Wild and windy

The weather has been super windy today, a few rain showers but no storms as was predicted.
Yesterday..
                                               
I went for a walk along the Bellarine Rail trail and the weather was quite different! I was looking for geocaches, found 2 out of four...one on my way back, I am not sure how I missed it in the first place!

I passed this marker post at one stage G = Geelong, Q = Queenscliff and D = Drysdale.

this grasshopper  kept flying in front of me, so I tried to sneak up for a photo, it had beautiful yellow wings,

this morning however was a different story..

when the Supervisor and I went for a walk, the wind was howling and a few spots of rain fell

Last night I sewed together rows of knitted squares for a KOGO blanket, with the winter fast approaching there will soon be a demand for these.

Today I have made a table runner using a panel from NZ, I have to hand sew the binding. I have free range quilted around the birds and ferns.

and the coasters are finished. Quite like these so I might make some more.

It is cooling down here so I need to go and get some slippers I think..my feet are getting cold!

Happy weekend.

FNWF results and Saturday sit and sew

On Friday night I managed to quit the little nine patch, simple quilting but I am happy with it

Thank you Cheryll for hosting, you can see what the other FNWF'ers got up to at Cherylls blog.

Yesterday I went to Portarlington and had sit and sew, there were just three of us there but we had a great day

there were some interesting clouds about over the water

I have been working on a weighted cushion for No 1 son to take to work

the Spidey man quilt has had basic quilting, I will go back and free motion around the Spidey pictures

I also started straight line quilting on this quilt. There was lots of chatting going on and Natalie was doing something new to her so needed help

Sue was cutting strips for her quilt

Natalie is making a quilt for her grandson, her first attempt at applique on the machine, these blocks are done

these are waiting to be done

Yesterday No 1 son and his lovely girlfriend came to stay, this morning he is cooking pancakes!! Yum!!

Now we are off to walk part of the Geelong Rail Trail and do some geocaching.

Happy trails.
