Polka Dot Girls




I haven't had much time for quilting lately but I have enjoyed myself working on my stitcheries. I have finally started on my Polka Dot Girls by Bronwyn Hayes and I am having a great time. I love Bronwyn's work and it is a delight to stitch. The block isn't finished but I just wanted to show a photo of this lovely lady in her garden. I can't wait to start on the next block.

The possum

Every night we can hear the possums on our roof. They always make us smile when they arrive as it sounds like they are wearing 'army boots'. We managed to get a photo of one of the cheeky possums and here she is enjoying a piece of apple. I just love this photo!

I love Country

I love Americana and with our son living in New York I feel I have a good
excuse to indulge my passion. My husband took me to this most fantastic
of shops "
Country on Tamborine". It is just filled with the most incredible
collection of all the things that I love. I couldn't help but buy a 'few' things.
I love angels and I just couldn't leave this gorgeous girl in the shop so she
had to come home with me - isn't she just gorgeous!











I also love crows and houses and the American flag so here are some photos of the other things that I just had to buy.
