Sorry i've been a bit quiet.........lots going on.........
I have got some quilts back from quilting........finished a quilt completely - don't die of shock.......
Lots of pics need to be taken.......sorted and posts written.........
I have been trying to find time to do another zoom but things have been busy............
SO today I rashly emailed out to everyone an hour or so before I could pop in for a couple of hours............thanks to those who popped in
Clare NZ, Janet & Gail USA, Chris Canada, Sylvia Germany and Diane, Annette, Jenny, Jeanette, Susan, Maureen and myself from Oz......I hope I have not missed anyone.....links all on the sidebar....
Being so rushed I just grabbed the sewing bag and found some Lucy blocks so that is what I worked on........Finished above and started on below..........
the next chance to zoom won't be until the end of the month........maybe the Sunday.......I couldn't wait that long to catch up hence the quick catch up today.........
SCRUB STITCHIN'
retreat plans are well underway for another wonderful few days of sewing........
Early April we will stitch up a storm again......
got a few newbies to add to the mix so should be a wonderul time once again..........
I'm so desperate for a sewing weekend with friends........come and join us........
Pic from 2019 as our last retreat as 2020 was cancelled due to covid.............
Currently we have a mice plague.........another great equaliser like covid everyone has them in the district..........some more then others..........
some of the damage the mice are doing to the bales..........its a battle I hope to win but I am not sure.....it's taking it's toll mentally, physically and financially....some farms have lost stacks of hay.......
dust storms would be better to deal with then mice..........
BUT I do love the light in this photo that I snapped early one morning..........
Stay safe..........
Keep the love of blogging alive............
Catch you later....

Oh so sorry to have missed Zooming.... Forgot all about it as I cleaned out the caravan after my morning dip and coffee.....then it was too late.
pretty Lacy blocks you worked on..
Sorry I didn’t get a chance to pop in today. Hopefully next time, or we’ll catch up at Scrub Stitchin. Bring it on.
Hopefully next time I can join in with zoom. Oh man - retreat is coming up and it seems I won't be there this time...fingers crossed for next year...sigh!!! I can't believe the damage the mice are doing - that is heart breaking seeing your feed disappear like that. Well done on getting a quilt finished!!!
Great picture although who would have thought mice could do so much damage! Sorry I was not able to join you on zoom - maybe next time. Nice work on your Lucy blocks. xx
Preciosos trabajos!!!
darn mice - what damage apart from the smell!!
was lovely to get a quick catchup.
Saw a post from Little Red Hen today - glad you had warned me....so sad....but she shows so much strength.
I'll have a sewing weekend to honour you all at SS!!
Sorry I missed it too, I tried to pop in after our Saturday evening plans, but was too late. Maybe next time!
The Zoom chats are always so much FUN, just listening to everyone talk!

comments aren't being sent thru at present.......not sure what is wrong.......
Glad you had a few drop in, would have liked to, but on Grandma duty at the moment. Sorry about the mice situation, they can do lots of damage.
That's a beautiful sunrise picture. Love that warm glow.
It was really great to sit & sew with everyone yesterday. I needed that break & the stitching company. Hope something happens soon to rid you of the mice problem. So much damage. Hugs, xx
Oh my goodness Chooky. I can just imagine the damage the mice infestations are causing. I have never seen them eat so much hay. That certainly means there are tons of them. It is nice to hear you find the positive though.
So, am I right to presume this sewing retreat will be virutal?
good to see Lucy out to play and looking forward to seeing the finished quilt..... great that SS is going ahead...everyone will be so ready for sewing with friends...
Hugz
So sorry to read about the mice and the damage they cause.
Sorry I couldn't join in the zoom, hopefully next time, am getting excited for Scrub Stitching, hopefully the borders stay open. So sad to see the mice plague, it would be wonderful for you to have a problem free season, no mice droughts no dust storms! Love your Lucy blocks.
The mice are awful as if our farmers need anymore trouble. We have them bad here too. I've been away this weekend and come to to see some inside. YUK where have they been????? OH yeh on my bed now a heap of changing and washing to do .GRRRR....
