It sounds like a productive wet day. Maybe another one tomorrow if the roads are too bad.

Martina said...

Oh wow, here it is wet too. Good that we never (lol) get bored, there is always something to do! But you were really busy in cutting and gluing them already! Hope you had a fun time off reading the mag!

Gosh all of those templates ready to go and you are on a roll. I so love your Lucy Boston's in the header, they are beautiful. Wow look at your rain, it's never normal is it. Rain or drought. Flipping weather. Have fun reading your mag and stitching Chooky.

I watched a bit about that girl who started up that magazine... good for her. I wonder how you found it. Great prep work - always makes a bit difference if you can pick up and go.

Glad to see you have rain. Hope you could get to work today safely.
I did prep on four more Lucy blocks on Friday. I need to do the joiners as well.
Loved the magazine. Thankyou again.

Maria said...

That's a great lot of prep work done...good on you! Good to hear that it's raining your way too...just as long as it knows when to stop! Lol. Lovely fine day here today, so I've been out weeding and planting in the veggie patch.

No rain and then bucket loads! I hope your dams are filling up nicely. Your lozenge shapes are going to be fun. Sometimes its fun to curl up with a magazine and flip through the glossy pages. I hope you enjoyed yours.

Whenever I see pictures of rain on your blog I'm so happy as I remember all those awful drought pics you showed us. I know this rain is probably a real pain for you but I can't help think of the really bad drought and just hope this is all still good news for you all in the country. Great prep pics. I prepared some hand sewing shapes the same last night. Took me so long to prep them (just tracing and marking mind you) but super quick to sew together.

Leanne said...

You are all set for a few night with all that prep work, I'm sure you are glad for the rain, Hope your dam is getting full.

Susan said...

I thought Epping might be a new swear word...Looks like you got a lot done...the news here has been full of QLD farmers saying they have never seen rain like that in winter before.. i hope the rain is helping.

Raewyn said...

Hope the rain is more Help than Hindrance...I know us farmers here in NZ are never satisfied with the weather -too hot-too cold-too dry-too wet---------! Good to have plenty of cutting/glueing/stitching to do while it's wet outside.

Anthea said...

I must go look up what 'epping' means... whatever, I'm so glad to see so much of the precious wet stuff in these pics... fab progress on the EPP.

Love your new header! The rain may be a bit much now but remember a year ago when it was so dry and you prayed for this.

kiwikid said...

Good to see the rain, hope it is useful and not a problem. Great work on the EPP.
