Friday night drinks in the Chookshed............

 a fun night.............I worked on a attaching the stripe to some more blocks..............no joining blocks  yet..............
Saturday morning I worked on binding a quilt.......I think I have about 1 side left to do..............
sorry no pics..........
Just some random ones..........
Friday before the rain I mowed and mowed and mowed everywhere...............I did some whipper snipping also and I am still paying for it but its so nice to see the outer outer garden yard all neat............even got carried away outside the fence............
And no aurora pics as we were cloudy...........
another inch of rain overnight Friday night.............It's pretty wet in the paddocks.........
not good for the other type of sowing........
good weather to be tucked up inside and its nice to be a bit cooler.............

This little bird decided to test out the glass door on the Chookshed...........I did check to see if it was stunned but no its dEaD.............opps.........
&&&&&&&
best start planning the Chookshed's birthday............
or should I to get disappointed once again........
the last couple of years its been pretty sad...............
2022 cancelled due to rain....tooooo wet for my friends to get in........thank goodness I had a zoom version.......not the same as the girls here in real life............
2023 I had the online version a week earlier and then I had to cancel the girls coming to stay as mum got seriously ill.............
What will 2024 hold...........it will be the 12th birthday.............not that shes got to celebrate the last couple properly.............
2021 was a full house........see here......

Maybe it's 3rd time lucky???

Keep the love of bloggin' alive.........

tid bits...........

We always have a great quilt "show and tell" at Scrub Stitchin'..... This year i said no folding up between each quilt.....Takes to long...... Look at the mountain on the table behind me.............
Sue has a lovely quilt too by the way...........
Having something finished is a great motivation for some to get a few more things over the line..............
One night near the full moon the moon and clouds looks pretty cool.............
Phones are pretty amazing now days............
earlier in the week scuds were around..............
I finally had a count up on zoom how many Chapel Street blocks I have...............well believe it or not this in 260..............I have another 40 with the stripe on also and the quilt size 66x66 says you need 288............I have another large pile of pieces cut and that is great as I want a big quilt.............
So mine will be big..........
It was a nice small group on Saturday morning/Friday evening on the flip side............
It was a cool, cloudy, WET Saturday.............
We've had 2 inches this weekend..........wonderful..............
ok best go...........
busy watching the grass grow............
Catch you later......
