Hotter than Sydney!

It was 28 degrees yesterday in Hobart (and forecast for 30 today) - hotter than Sydney!! So the kids had their first go in the paddling pool for the year.

Kelvin was loving it...

...and then decided he'd try to fit into that saucepan - unlikely given those thighs!!

I'm home sick today with the sorest of sore sore throats (can barely swallow) so an email from Amy at Badskirt was a lovely surprise - I won her pre-Japan fat quarters giveaway!! I've only just received some fabric that I bought from Amy. I'm loving the Cogsmo and the duckies are very cute.

I've also been op-shopping again and found some more fabulous vintage linen - thinking pillowcase dresses and lounge pants (aka pyjama bottoms).

Blogtoberfest - Trev does his best Delvine Delaney!

Blogtoberfest is over.

Thanks to everyone for dropping by and leaving comments, and to my old and new followers! There were 100+ entries into the giveaway (and Trev has done his best Delvine Delaney and drawn the winner in an old-fashioned out-of-the-hat selection process)!

And the winner is Jeanette - keep an eye out in the post for a parcel wining it's way to you.

And I think that Mel needs a "most consistent" award for commenting almost everyday. Mel is one of the new people I have met through Blogtoberfest - so it has well and truely been worth my while signing up for the challenge!

This is also my 100th post! No giveaway for this post but maybe for my 111th post!! Keep an eye out.

Blogtoberfest - Day ?? - News Flash!!

Boy walks from mum to couch!

Life is about to change around here...

Blogtoberfest - Day ?? - Stacked Coin Quilt FINISHED!

Yes, you read right - the stacked coin quilt is finished (and washed and dried and wrapped)!

Things to remember for next time - don't do those lines of quilting so close together!

I have also started cutting fabric for a modified brick path quilt I want to have finished for Kelvini for Christmas! I need 132 bricks and have about 60 so far - I need more fabric (but who needs an excuse, really...)!!
