Happy Easter


Happy Easter everyone. I hope your having a great weekend relaxing with family and working on your wips. Have you eaten a ton of chocolate, I have and it has to be Cadbury or nothing I tell you. Cadbury is just the best chocolate I think. Anyway here is a pic of a Easter banner I did and I put it on this basket and it came to good use holding all my Easter eggs. I had my fluffy bunny beanie kid be on guard to make sure the chocolate didnt disappear....lol

This pattern was my Mums and as you can see in the photo here, she has completed her latch hook and now Im doing the same pattern but as a cross stitch.

A visit from a Koala


Every week or two we get a visit from a Koala, he sits in the same Claret Ash tree and has a nap then in the late arvo he goes up higher into the manor gum trees next to the Claret Ash tree for a feed and then waits till nightfall and moves on. In this case he left that afternoon and you know we never saw him go. Come to think of it we never saw him arrive either. They are so cute and cuddly you just want to hug them but keep in mind those huge claws they have and you tend you keep your distance. He is not frightened at all and in the past we have given Koalas bowls of water, as you can see from the photo on my blog.

A few Finishes

Wow its been a week since I posted. I have been very busy trying to get some finishes for the month.




First up is my Easter Banner, yay I have finished it early normally Im desperately trying to finish it the night before.

Do you like my beanie kid, its Fluffy the bunny and he has a new home for awhile in the Easter basket and he will go onto my Easter Table. I will fill up the basket with yummy easter eggs. Love easter egg chocolate.





Second is my October Quaker, as you know Im doing all 12 of them. Started with September and going from there, yeah I know it was a weird place to start but I wanted to do them in the month that it was. Ok so now its February and Im behind LOL. I will catch up somehow. No its not the light Im using dmc floss that is varigated, just love how it looks on these.


















Finally here is my first mouse pad called Busy cat, I have to say I loved working with vinyl canvas.
