| 36654 | Thanks for comments, i didnt enjoy the stitch in the ditch tho, stippling is much more fun. i will add a cozy room for you Holly and the quilt can go in there.
Hubby and i spent a few hours making a run for the hen it joins onto the phone box, seems to get a chicken to sleep inside they get shut in for a few days ( like you shut a cat in when its new to the house ) anyways so we made a little run and tomorrow night will catch her and put her in. then we will take the run off and hopefully she will sleep in there. she couldnt get up the apple tree tonight she tried for a good 1/2 hour then found another tree, took this pic of her, later she climbed to almost the top and i couldnt see her for leaves -

i googled pic and there was no pattern so my flowers have turned out slightly bigger. coalrange1 - 2012-10-06 21:01:00 |
| 36656 | Wow! I looove your quilt coalie...what a good buy that fabric was...AND the wedding ring one for two measly dollars! What a gift!
I have had a fairly quiet day. Mowed the lawns this morning...and finished my book. Tuscan Rose by Belinda Alexander...it was great. Now I should go out to my shed but the trouble is that my eyes are getting tired...so I will probably trawl through some sites that skippie put me onto instead. Lucky little chook is going to be very happy at her new home I think...especially when holly moves in... jumbobon - 2012-10-06 21:32:00 |
| 36657 | Jumbo did Skippie give you a list of sites, how many times is Hancocks on there hehe coalrange1 - 2012-10-06 21:42:00 |

| 36685 | Yep, hope she doesn't come back in here cos it's supposed to be a surprise, but I wanted to show you. I have a picture that you showed me Coalie from a long time ago and I'm using that as a guide for ideas, such as the book on a slant. That wasn't as easy as it looked. yduj - 2012-10-08 19:26:00 |
| 36686 | Hello hello hello. Muttley is in Gisborne and I have been in my shed for ages. Only six more blocks to make on my quilt as you go quilt...but more than that to quilt. Have a look on the quilting edge...her tutorials are fantastically easy to follow. Mine is in reds, oranges and yellows...very very bright!
What are you doing tonight ? jumbobon - 2012-10-08 19:49:00 |

Have done that Coalie, Google has helped a lot. However, there comes a time when i have to stop looking and "just do it" - which is what I did today - got started. yduj - 2012-10-08 20:06:00 |

| 36696 | Yells bells and buckets of blood...I didn't know that people in NZ actually lived like that coalie! What a place! I think my favourite bit was the playhouse for the kids...complete with climbing wall foot and hand holds. I wonder how many housekeepers they employ?
Good morning...from the real world! Breakfast is ready...and when you are all here shall we put on our best clobber, climb aboard our various travelling options and go to Remuera for a look see? Don't forget your pearls and diamonds though...and wear your best knickers!! jumbobon - 2012-10-09 08:17:00 |
