Good morning, Skippie I mwant you always seem to be doing things, don't know where you get the energy from.
Love to see a picture of the doll Coalie, even without a dress.
I have been knitting for babies and made a couple of quilts for the hospital.
Hope to get back into sewing soon.
I have started something called stitchery which I do like doing.
So much I want to do, 1 more week and am back to normal at work, no extra days yippee

Morning all, cool and windy in the Bay.Tea is made come and get it.
Is anyone going to the Hamilton Craft show early September? Jumbo and I are coming up with some of the girls from our Tuesday evening group.
Joy, was spoon fed to me that sitting down and not doing something was wasting time, so it's normal for me to always do something.

Good Morning Merry Sunshines! Tea and toast on here...heaps for all. Muttley was going to take me out to lunch yesterday but we ended up having it at home...take two today!
GS's were in SCBU for the first couple of months of their life...along with identical girls born about the same time. Of course the Mums became good friends...and have remained so...along with the kids. Sooo...last night they had a combined 14th birthday...girls and boys galore. And do you know what? We can all relax. Our future is in good hands...what a great group of kids. Only one young man had to be spoken to about his language...and he took it well.
Next year they want a sleep over!!!

Gorgeous sewing Coalie! You always come up with great ideas. Mr 12 and I are hibernating at home today, I think it has been raining a solid 30 hours or so here now, so I hope some of you have boatbuilding skills if I require them:o)

wee5 - 2012-08-13 09:11:00
35539

Goodmorning
sunny here yay
ok Wee your message sounds serious, what we need to do is have an ark size boat cause the stash and sewing machines have to go first then women and children haha ok maybe hang lots of rainbows from it and Mr 12 will be happy to do some travelling, oooh fill it with cuddly quilts and cakes and and and oooh can you pick me up sounds fun haha
Does anyone know where i put the black crayons, have an idea but they are hiding .... jugs boiling help yourselves and have a lovely day.

Hmm, I appear to have 29 yards of minky and flannel coming from fabric.com.. oops>

And don't forget the animals coalie...2x2! Black crayons are in the school cupboard or in the sewing space or in the tardis, or under the table or next to the coalrange ( melted! ) or stuck down the back of the sofa or inadvertently put in the bread drawer or in the fridge or the cat snuck in and ate them or the munchkins have borrowed them or you know who has used them for bait or maybe they are beside the red ones and the green ones and the yellow ones and the blue ones and the white ones or under the computer or between the bench and the dresser or or or.....

Hehehe, by the time it gets to me in the lower south island there may be a couple of random half yards left..

Its for my page on facebook, just a wee at home thing I do so I can stay home with my babies <3 Probably quite 'basic' compared to what all you guys are capable of :)

deadfall - 2012-08-13 10:18:00
35547
