a present & 9 patches..........

Thanks so much for all your lovely comments on the last post.............it was very last minute decision to do "drought drinks" but we had a great time and lots of neighbours were able to come.........and all very happy to gather.........mind you some of my neighbours are very close and others 20-30mins away......it was a nice way to end the week..............the last few weeks have been horrible.............windy dusty days.........some very hot others cooler.............the paddocks are getting pretty bare........it's miserable to look out...............depressing driving to and from work...........and no rain is  forecast.........looking at selling some more cattle...........some sheep going tomorrow............

Mick and Janice also join us for drought drinks as you can see here....I do hope they went to bed earlier then me...........

i'm very flat today.......tired...........i've dawdled around and achieved not much...........

In what had been a horrible week a nice parcel arrived in the mail.................

Thanks so much Susan @ Susans Sewing Space....................check out this post I think there may have been some conspiring going on..............just saying!!!!!!

In My Garden by Natalie Bird

And Susan even got Natalie Bird to sign it for me......so very thoughful.......

for those who were at the table I am thinking about it............

And believe it or not I have my nine patches finished...........really dragging the chain but just when I thought I was finding some time to sew again I got sick and started fulltime work..............but they are done and will be in Monday's mail..........i'll do another post about them soon so you can see them better........

I still have heaps to show and tell and I still haven't forgotten you Rachel but the net has been slow and nothing working right.........heading to a neighbours for dinner ...........sheep work tomorrow sorting them up for the sale yards........need to check their teeth and make sure they have an ear tag.......so once they are on the truck i'll have a shower and get some posts together............

have a great weekend...............

Catch you later
