Santa Sack Swap - Opening

This is my first year I've joined Cheryll's wonderful Santa Sack Swap.
I've been excited to open my gifts but now that I'm allowed, I want to save them.
So I've opened ONE.


And it's a beautiful Christmas Tea Towel. It's gorgeous Lisa.


I'll be using it for Xmas Day

Santa Sack Swap - Rec'd

My parcel from Lisa turned up today.
Such a cute little Gingerbread man & a sweet little stock decoration


Can't wait for opening day

Christmas Stocking

 

Time for a Christmas Stocking for my Granddaughter's First Christmas

 I've used Hatched & Patched "Under the Mistletoe" Fabric Range

  I love how it turned out.

Ella 6 Months Old

How time flies and I think it's going quicker with a Grandchild
Ella is rolling everywhere and is always so happy
She's cut her first tooth so she's chewing everything in sight
She's getting onto solids now and LOVES Vegemite on Toast

Such a little joy for our family 💜💕💜

My favourite photos of the countryside at Middlebrook

 

 

Retreat Sewing

Lots of sewing was done in between chatting, eating & walking

Christmas Hand Towels

Susan brought her little puppies to show us

Jenny whipped up her own Dave the Dachshund

Now Dave just needs some eyes and stuffing



Jenny was on fire and finished her Lynette Anderson Christmas Stitchery

I couldn't wait to make this Christmas Table Centre for myself.

Thanks to Susan and Trish for their tips

Last project for a few Gail Pan Christmas Decorations

Middlebrook Retreat

On the weekend I had the pleasure of joining 7 ladies at Middlebrook (Hunter Valley) for a sewing retreat.



Kylie, Susan, Raelee, Julie, Jenny, Trish & Me (Karleen missing)



Beautiful Views

 

So much food so a morning walk was a must

 

Very healthy Chicken Curry Salad

Beautifully displayed Morning Tea

Stunning Sunset

Our last morning tea. Raelee, Jenny & Susan

Lots of sewing was done so I'll share more photos later in the week.

Bike Ride to Batemans Bay

October had has on the bike for a 5 day trip to Batemans Bay via Goulburn, Canberra & Return

Finally someone got a photo of us on the bike instead of me taking all the pics





Using the Panoramic Setting on my IPhone

This was all of us at Fitzroy Falls

We had a great trip even though we had a bit of rain along the way

Bathurst Blog Meet 2015

Another great get together in Bathurst.

I arrived at 5:30pm Friday and finished my Merry Christmas Banner at 11:30pm

Happy Father's Day

We got up early to compete in our local Fun Run, then off to breakfast with friends.

Back home for a rest before a baked dinner for the family.

Dummy Clips

I whipped up these dummy clips for Ella. Quick and Easy

Her Mummy is very pleased, now Ella can't spit her dummy on the ground 

Granddaughter update photos

Ella Lou Lou (as I call her) is now two months old and growing very long

She has found her tongue and makes lots of noises 

She's focusing on toys now

Nothing better than cuddles with Granny

Love those chubby cheeks and looby lips
