Yes ! It"s Wednesday again....and that means 'One Flower Wednesday." My ! How time does fly.There just does not seem to be enough hours in each day. How are you all? Have you had a good week.? I do hope so.
This week I am introducing ANASTASIA to show you my flowers.I have completed 5 this weekThis takes me to a total of 40 flowers..I have made my first goal 100...then I will work out just how many more I need..Maths was never a strong point with me, so will have to work it out as I go along..I am going to put a single white path round each flower..My Hexies are 3/4 inch and I am making a Queen Size Quilt...I am thinking that I may have to extend my total to about 120...if anyone can point me in the right direction...please do so ..I will be grateful...but please don't tell me individual hexies...that's in the too hard basket... lol....Somewhere out there in Blogland...my little Sister will be reading this and hoping that the Hexie disease that I have contracted is not hereditary....!!!!
Op Shop Find
This week in the Op Shop I came across a single china cup that took my eye...On examination i found it to be a Royal Albert...Loved the design and colours so I bought it..Now did I really need an odd cup,even if it did come from good stock? Not really, so I turned it into something I could use....A Pin Cushion.
My New Books
This week the postman delivered my parcel of 2 new books from The Book Depository.I can't wait to get stuck into them.
The first one is:-
The Forgotten Children:Fairbridge Farm School and It's Betrayal of Britain's Child Migrants To Australia . By (author) David Hill
The second book is;-
Stolen by Lesley Pearse.
I must tell you the outcome from my post last week.."Please Name My Bear"...Thank you to everyone for their lovely posts and messages ..the result was that many people had the same idea,,,so my newly adopted bear will now be known as PABLO.Many thanks again.
My Places of Interest.
My Places of Interest.This week I would like to show you the picture that i have on my sidebar...The Blue Lake at Mount Gambier South Australia...There is a very good link HERE if you would like to learn more about it.
I think that is about all for now,so until we meet again - Happy Stitching
Take care
Kate :)
