school holidays

It’s school holidays in Melbourne and that means sleeping in (I love to sleep late!!) But it also means I am out of routine and find it hard to get going, especially since it is cold (for us 10 degrees C is cold!) I am still thinking about making cupcakes but maybe tomorrow.

I have been working on a few things and here is a photo:

I have paired it up with this block

and some other stitcheries as well. I am now procrastinating about how to finish it……it will happen soon I suppose.

I have started the book I bought ages ago "cloudstreet" after quickly reading a few Elm Creek books, as l love to read I always have a pile of books waiting to be read… between sewing and reading who wants to do housework!!!

be back soon

  1. I love your flowers in this piece. I’ve not seen anyone do them that way, and I like it a lot. I’ll probably try some. I also love the block you are pairing up with the stitcheries. I look forward to seeing the whole piece when you finish.

  2. I like this little pot of flowers and the block is wonderful. Enjoy that sleeping in thing – I just cannot seem to get there. I met my husband at work too!

  3. Love the stitcheries, love the block, and your colours are just beautiful. I agree who wants to do house cleaning with so many good books to read and sewing to be done. But how do you find the time to do it all? you are amazing.oxoxo

  4. Love your blocks Gail, especially the little flowers they are very cute. Im with you who wants to do housework when there is sewing and reading to be done ….. much more fun and enjoyable. Cheers Sue

  5. like the stitchery and block this will look great together…I should have a play drawing…at the moment I am stitching some drawings from my 6yo……..

  6. The stitchery and block look lovely, Gail, love the colours.
    We are enjoying the holidays too, have been working on my Quilter’s Journal and I just did my Raspberry Ripple page yesterday!
