Sunday on a Monday........

If it can't rain at least the days are glorious....(22-25degC)............I have enjoyed sitting out of the car the last few days at the cows...............(I've been busy with other "kid" commitments so had a little break from the cows)

This was my table today............the neighbours dropped off the Sunday papers............only one day late reading them..........

..how many drovers do english paper piecing................

This was me last time at the cows on the 19th Aug...........on the bike it was freezing putting the cows in...........

I have been a bit missing lately but life just doesn't slow down.......needed to make an appearance as I have several emails in the last few days checking on me...........eg Do I need to phone you???..Are you ok??? 

THANKYOU girls

We have had a little rain......need lots more......had to sell some cattle as we are running out of feed (lucky the market kicked up a bit that day so they sold better then expected) 

&&&

...I have taken quite a few pics here and there over the last month and not got to share them so today I took the computer and the cameras and phone and downloaded all the pics............trying to get sorted here.............if your looking for sewing you'll be disappointed.........there isn't much..............

bound this quilt for a friend sitting at the cows...........

on a rare afternoon home the kids and I cooked dough sticks on the campfire..........

fill with golden syrup - yummo

This GORGEOUS bag arrived in my mail................OMG I am in heaven

a "pick me up"

and inside........

.....it is my constant companion............ traveled lots of km's in it's short life with me..............

Thanks HEAPS Janet - so glad I won your giveaway..............

PS  "Coke" and "Daisy" the lambs are going well and now have another sibling "lambogini"
PSS and for those waiting for "that time" "the unmentionable" to come I am hoping to find some time in the next week or 2.............

Twins..........

I go away for one night and look what I find in the kitchen when I return...................they had better survive cause I am not wasting time I don't have on fiddly lambs.............and the kids are SOOOO excited...............introducing "Daisy" on the right - Fairy Girl thought of it..........and "Coke" on the left - thought of by Book Worm he wanted "rum" first but Mr Chooky blocked that one thank goodness..........

anyway I have lots more to share but you'll have to wait till I get time............maybe tomorrow otherwise who knows.............

Take care.........

Tis the Season SAL update.............

What a lovely surprise in the mail this week...............Tracy had a little giveaway on her blog and I received this in the mail this week.............perfect timing as I have managed to get a little stitching done while at the cows and some of them have been xmas ones so this will be used in one of those projects.............definitely a little bright moment in my week...............thanks so much Tracy..............

And I am sure some of you may think I have given up on this one but I am almost finished the stitching.............only the wreath block to go and it will be my label...............

A white border and a scrappy binding of the left overs as I only had fat 1/4's of this fabric...........

Check out the SAL blog as the girls are starting to get tops come together and they look fantastic..............

much more excitement there then here...........sorry girls............

Nothing else much to report except for another lovely parcel but i'll get to that soon..............

i'm barely home to sleep at the moment so nothing else to report..........please send your rain this way..........

Catch you later..............
