Good news

I have found the binding and some extra fabric if needed.

Now I just have to finish quilting the last 3 blocks and the borders. But what to do on the borders will be the next problem.

Here are some photo's of the 8 year old UFO I have been working on, while I wait for the next instalment of the BOM's I amd working on.
It has spent the last 5 years at the end of our bed partly quilted, and the other day it got a tad cool so we pulled it up over us for extra warmth. So I thought it was a good time to try and get it finished.
Now if only I can remember where I put the binding!!!














I have at last taken a photo of last months block for the goose tracks BOM I am doing.
Due to some hiccups I have had to wait for the next part, but if all goes well the next instalment should be out tomorrow.

I think life has got back to normal now.......but just what is normal no one ever knows.

For the last week I have been working on a UFO that is over 8 years old, and for the last 5 years has been sitting at the end of my bed. It is sprayed and pinned basted and had been partly quilted, and still held together.
The hardest part was finding the thread I had been using to quilt it, or should I say threads as I was doing two different ones. A pale green/blue/pink/yellow on the light parts and a darker red/pink/yellow/orange on the darker areas.

The BOM I am doing has been delayed this month so I will just have to UFO sew until it comes out.

Will add photos as soon as I get some done.

Well I have not been online much for the last 2 weeks as I have had my sister and her kid here from the UK. Our mum has not been to well so she came over for a visit. Here is a pic of them at the zoo.

I went fishing over the Easter weekend with my hubby and stepson.

Guess who got the big fish 'ME'

My stepson only got the tiny ones but he don't mind that I got the big one.
But he did say he will get some stick from his mate when he tells him that his stepmother got a bigger fish than him.
This mullet will go for bait so hope-fully stepson will be able to get the big one later.

Here is my house arriving in its new home, it has been there since Dec. 2005.
Somewhere under there is a wheel base so it can be moved if needed to be.
Lots have been added on to the outside like a deck and carport roof, plus lots of flower pots and plants have been added.
No the caravan next to it is not ours but it is on the site nextdoor to mine.
