Sometimes I wonder

 I pulled out a project to make a push to the finish the other day, counted the blocks I had made, and then panicked as I thought two were correct and the other 15 were wrong and I had to unpick them 😢. I moved them this way and that

I even turned them upside down to see where I had gone wrong. Later in the day I had another look and thought what if I matched up the four patches and duh, realised I just had them sitting the wrong way!! Boy did I feel silly! Anyway all is good and no unpicking is needed!!
The all the same way stack!
This is a kit I bought from Jude, I think it might be two years ago now! Jude and her fairy helper make up kits each year and sell to raise funds for breast cancer research, they come ready cut, all I have to do is sew! The is a Scrappy Nine Patch.
I have more four patches ready for their side blocks to be sewn on
This is todays job to be done, but it is muggy and hot and I am just not in the mood. Might have to go and get the fan to move some air around in the sewing room.
We have been forecast thunder storms the last day and a half which have not arrived but today there is some cloud building up out to the west

Hopefully we get some rain from this and it doesn't just scoot around us.
I have been doing a lot of reading
I finished this book a few days ago, was a good read

and am working my way through this one, the last in my bag of Michael Connelly books I bought at the Rotary/Lions book sale in November.
I am off to get the fan and to try and get sewing.
Happy stitching.

PS.
The weather has gone around us and is heading for Melbourne, I can see some rain falling over the bay and hear some faint rumbles of thunder.

FNWF

I am off to Cheryll's to sign up for FNWF.
I am not sure if I will get any sewing to be done to be honest as we are off to Samoa, and the plane lands at 9.45pm their time, which is three hours ahead of our time, so who knows, I might get the urge to sew once we are sorted! I had a look at the weather we can expect and it is not so good, actually this has changed from this morning, this morning it was the whole week of storms and rain so things are looking brighter!! Guess we just have to wait and see!!
Happy travels!

Attempt at golf

Well yesterday I thought I was doing the right thing and went with DH to play golf at Romsey - I have never played proper golf before - just put-put type golf with the boys.
It was an interesting introduction - it started out a windy day, then we had hail, then rain, then the sun came back out, then more hail, followed by heavy rain - we are at the 8th hole by this time and I am dripping....then the sun came out in time for us to go home!!! Not sure if this is my game....;-)
Mmmmmm....clouds gathering

more clouds but some sun too


most often view of DH due to my lack of hitting expertise!!

Yes, this is hail!!
Think I am better suited to staying home and getting on with my sewing projects!!
