farm stuff......

I've got a new friend Tiny.... She really is so tiny so lets hope she survives. 
Spring is in the air and it's been lovely to open the house up and get the fresh air come thru....... 
Lambing has started and it's wonderful to have feed in the paddocks for the ewes lambing.... Being a bit later then usually joining the ewes due to the drought we delayed until we had some good rain......the weather is much nicer for the new lambs
I've sent a few quilts off to be quilted..... Let's hope Australia Post doesn't slow them down to much..... Postage and freight is pretty random at present..... Some quick some slow...... 
Stay safe..... 
Catch you later.....

Hope tiny is soon not so tiny, good to see the sheep and their lambs, and also hope that those quilts arrive sooner rather than later!

QUILTING IS BLISSFUL, DI said...

Oh boy...Tiny is so tiny and sweet! Will you keep him in the Chooky shed? He needs a quilt I think. The skies look beautiful and blue as they are here as we open our windows to welcome the fresh cooler weather in. I love the changing seasons. Enjoy your warmer weather Chooky🌻💝

Tiny is so cute and hope the warm weather assist with her progress. The yellow flower so perfect but not too sure about those thistle spikes lurking at the base. You never cease to amaze me with all you accomplish in a day. Stay Covid safe.

Tiny is so cute, I hope she thrives and is ok to go back with the other sheep. We are enjoying the spring weather too, although not so much the north wind that is howling today. Good luck with your quilts, hopefully Aus. Post gets their act together.

Do hope Tiny is doing okay... she'll need lots of caring for awhile before going out with the others...
Lovely to have the warmer weather and great to have had rain to green up the paddocks so the new lambs and Mums have fed.

Tiny is cute, hope she is strong.
You have a frame, why are you still sending things out? Just go for it!

Awe, Tiny is so cute! Spring is so welcome right now and I hope you are getting enough rain. Australia Post varies greatly so I guess your lovely quilts will get there eventually.

Sue SA said...

I just got told that normal mail would be 2-3 weeks to Sydney, so I sent it express - which takes up to 5 days! Hope you get some more follow up rains.

Janice said...

Tiny is so sweet. When I was little I had a pet lamb at Grandma’s called a Tiny Tim. He was really tiny too. Yes, he survived. It will be great to have your quilts finished.

Your lamb photo is cute. I hope you don't experience much of a postal delay in getting your quilts back.

Tiny is adorable--hope she makes it! The mail is crazy in the US also--I can't wait until things get back to normal.

Good to see green around as well as new life, hope the season continues to improve
It's sad that we all have to live under these strict conditions caused by a few inconsiderate people. Life can only improve, enjoy it while we can
Love your WIP on the lantern quilt

Tiny is just too cute! Looks so fresh and springy there--as everything here is winding down for fall.
Yeah, who knows if or when we will get packages like we used to. Everything is taking longer, and I've had two packages from Amazon get "lost" along the way.

Oh my, that "Tiny" is so sweet. Life has been a challenge for so many this year. I surely hope she makes it through. I have finally figured out why I can't Zoom. My daughter is going with me soon to buy a new phone and help me set it up. I would love to catch you all in a future Zoom chat. Take care and enjoy the day.

Tiny is so cute! I sure hope she is doing ok.
The flower is beautiful. You are lucky to be coming into spring. I love spring. I love fall too, but that means winter is around the corner.
