Nerys sent us a photo of her riding a Horse... so I had to dig into my photos to find more Horse photos didn't I!

Photo a Day Challenge - 23.12.2022 - Tradition.


 A tradition with our family is... when we have a new guest joining us for a meal... we ask them 20 Questions, at first they can be a little worried but the questions are simple and friendly, such as... What's your favourite Breakfast?  Did you have a favourite school teacher?  What did you want do when you grew up?  soon the guests asks for more questions which is great fun.

Lots of lovely stars here, I love this quilt which I gave to one of my nieces, might make it again one day.

I knitted this Bucket Hat for Abi at her request, isn't it funky.

Dealing with the aftereffects of my first Chemo hasn't been easy, but I am tough and I will get there sooooonnnn....

Photo a Day Challenge - 13.12.2022 - Something Green.

 Couldn't help myself, here a few Green Quilts I've made over the years.

Front and Back of a cosy little Raggy.

This was a Challenge, the fabric was given to us and we made 'something' with it, this is just a little Wall Hanging but I did love hand making it, such little pieces and such fussy cutting.

Australian State Flower emblems I made as a wall hanging for Susan many years ago.

A Babushka Quilt I made for one of my Great Nieces for her 1st Birthday.

And below this beautiful quilt was gifted to me by one of my long time friends Dave Crisp who was gifted it from a family connection in the USA, he'd never used it and when he found out I loved making quilts he gave it to me!  How lucky am I eh!  All beautifully hand made and very much treasured that's for sure.

Yesterday my lovely cousin Sue came around with these beautiful flowers which have just the faintest hint of a fresh perfume.


 Don't they look happy with my Babuskhas. 

Plus Sue bought me ... Some Mangoes and Berries Yay!  I made myself a wonderful healthy breakfast this morning, just delish it was... and some left over for morning tea!
