Brutus 3

Another completed Brutus stitchery. Here he is with Sue and Cynthia.

I almost had a cat-tastophy when I learnt that this particular varigated thread had been discontinued. After a few phone calls I managed to track down enough skeins to finish all the stitcheries.

What are you stitching?

Colourful Friday ~ Orange

Just a few orange things around my home. Off to town now but I hope to come visit your orange-ness later today.

O.F.W. ~ SAHR4

Hooray for Wednesday! ... middle of the week ... I don't go to work on Wednesdays ... and it's One Flower Wednesday.

I've been super busy trying to get the housework done and play with fabrics.

Some of my fabric play has been for round 4 of SAH Robin.

Why does the camera ... or is it just me? ... make the blocks look wonky?

I've also managed to wrap all the gifts for the FRIENDS Swap and now just need to wait till I can get to the post office.

Off to do some more housework. Atleast I feel like I've achieved something today.

Green Friday

Living in the country ... and after all the beautiful rain we've been having ... there is green as far as the eye can see.

Here are a few more green things I found around the house.

Happy Green Day!

One Flower Wednesdays

Wednesday again, yipee! Two more flowers to add to my garden.

With all the wet weather we've been having, you'd think I would have more to show for being indoors.

I've been up to my ears in bookwork but made sure I took time out for One Flower Wednesday. So it's back to the books for me ... sadly I can't come visiting your gardens just yet.

Hope you find time to be creative today.

Stitch by Stitch Brutus Appears

In the evenings I like to sit and stitch while glancing at the television now and then. It helps me to wind down from the days rush and bustle.

My second Brutus block from Bronwyn Hayes 'Catalicious' is DONE! And I started on the next one last night.

A stitch a day keeps the troubles away.
Enjoy the weekend!

More Blue Friday

I'm back with more BLUE!

I haven't had time to play with a collage maker yet so I'm still doing it my old fashioned way.

Speaking of time ... I hope that today I can pop round to check out all the blue in blogland
and reply to all the lovely comments. It's always lovely to hear from friends.

Colourful Fridays ~ Blue

Well here it is BLUE Friday and of course I'm having trouble uploading ALL the photos.This is half. Hopefully through the day I can get to share the other half.
I'm left wondering ... are there so many blue things around my home because blue is my favourite colour or ... is blue my favourite colour because I am surrounded by it?
I didn't even start on the clothing.

Hope you're having fun with blue. I'll be around to visit soon.

One Flower Wednesdays

Talk about speed gardening. This little hexie flower was quickly stitched this morning before heading out for the day.

I hope you've had time to 'stop and smell the flowers'.

Happy Gardening
