Wednesday, July 23, 2014. It has been a busy couple of weeks with appointments and a trip to Brisbane but at last, today, I have a day at home to catch the breath. Our beautiful daughter, Bonnie, turned 30 this past Monday. We went to Brisbane and took her to lunch on Sunday and spoiled her a little bit. This is the card I made for her with one of my new stencils from Crafter’s Workshop. The stencils were on sale at one of my fave online stores for all things crafty ,. Craft Online.com.au.

Eat - Play - Quilt: August 2014
http://eatplayquilt.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 29, 2014. Busy Times–a holiday required. Hello All. A long time between drinks, but life has been chucking us wobblies as well as some good times, leaving me precious little time to create. In between all of it I have been throwing a bit of paint around some paper and fitting in a bit of art work whenever I can. Here are some prints from the humble egg carton. The end of the celery makes a lovely rose print. DH, Brother in Law, Ian and DH’s sister, Catherine. Labels: Art and Painting.

Eat - Play - Quilt: Embroidered Quilt Gift
http://eatplayquilt.blogspot.com/2015/03/embroidered-quilt-gift.html
Monday, March 23, 2015. I am one lucky girl! At my birthday gathering back in Feb. my dear friends had planned a surprise and presented me with this wonderful embroidered wall hanging. It blows me away to think that they think that much of me to make me something so very special. Close up of the blocks. The work in them is exquisite and I love how the ladies have included some bright colours to make the whole thing ‘pop’. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. March 23, 2015 at 5:33 AM.

Eat - Play - Quilt: Birthdays & Weddings
http://eatplayquilt.blogspot.com/2015/03/birthdays-weddings.html
Sunday, March 1, 2015. Hello dear blogging friends. Another birthday has happened – we cannot stop them – and why would we? My lovely quilting friends chucked a surprise and took me out to morning tea. They presented me with something really special. It has been kept secret for months – apparently. We went to the cafe at Spring’s Garden World and they had wonderful cakes and goodies. I have never seen such a large piece of carrot cake. Compare it to Marleen’s lemon cheesecake! Marleen gifted me this brig...

Monday, January 26, 2015. Some Art Journalling and Playtime. Happy Australia day for yesterday to all you proud Aussies.

School holidays have just ended here in sunny Queensland. We look after Lilian for most of the duration of the school holidays, and the one thing she loves to do the most, is paint with Nana. One day when Lilian went...

Monday, May 12, 2014. Mother’s Day Treats, A new project, and Comforting Food. It was so nice to have both our daughters at our house on Sunday to share Mother’s Day with me. Second daughter, Bonnie and DH gave me a big, beautiful bunch of flowers and Bonnie also gave me a relaxing massage. Isn’t this flower a beautiful colour? Xxx Love you girls to bits. Why is it when the colder weather hits, our minds immediately turn to warm comforting food, food and more food. The one I chose was this one. Early in ...

Monday, December 22, 2014. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to All. This nativity scene is constructed outside the City Hall building of our beautiful fair city. Everything is so green after the lovely summer rain we had recently. During the holidays I hope to work on some unfinished projects and play around some more with paints and textiles. My Sashiko quilt has been ‘maturing’ in the cupboard because of an artistic block. The girls at Indigo Niche. And it was perfect for the front of my book. In the...

Thursday, April 2, 2015. A Wedding and Some Crafty Dabbling. Our beautiful daughter was married to her wonderful guy on 13 March beside the river at Noosaville. It was a fabulous wedding. I got all dressed up. So did the beautiful Lilian who relished in her job of flower girl. I did the card sign and place cards. They were done with watercolours on watercolour paper. I used a pigma No 8 pen to write the names. It started like this. I loved the dyeing process and can't wait to do some more. Wishing you al...
