Good morning...but not getting up just yet. I'll try to get a bit more sleep before breakfast but at the moment I'm a bit too awake. I hope I haven't woken anyone up. I'm trying to be quiet, truly!
See you laterer.

Mooooooorning! No frost here...it was raining again in the night but is only looking cloudy this morning. There is enough blue sky to make a sailors suit but only if it is a teeny weeny sailor!
Breakfast is nearly on...it should be ready by the time you get here.
Have an awesome day!

jumbobon - 2013-09-01 07:51:00

Goodmorning
Thanks for cuppas, is it today Vi is going to Hamilton or was it Floss going today ??
lovely sunny day here and we had a frost
Quilt washed and drying, other one ready to handsew the binding but going to start a new one its going to be little pieces so will take a while.
Have a happy day ok :)

Haha Jumbo, I managed to stay in bed... got more sleep last night thank goodness! 2nd ripper frost in a row here and plenty of blue sky to spare... I'll try n bring it north with me on Wed, shall I? Much to do before then, tomorrows bath day for Sas so nothing else will get done. Managed to put a set of coasters together yesterday, binding sewn on 1, the others are ready to go... thought that would give me a wee hand sewing proj while I'm away... can't be totally idle eh?

Oh Coalie, what a real snazzy quilt with those circles! At what stage are they sewn on? Part of the patch or afterwards? And they'll fray to give a bit of a raggy quilt look? I know, lots of questions... hows it look washed?

Lovely pic of your Mum Bar! Looks a great article!

I have already been to the bay for you jumbo hope it worked and that it didnt follow me back home.

Thanks Viv, I bought the fabrics in a kit ages ago in here, a lady we used to talk to wanted the pattern so worked out good cause I didn't want the pattern it was a hard one lol
I was just thinking of you Viv and hoped you weren't working on such a lovely day, did you find somewhere for the sewing machine ? I sew on the coffee table and sit on the sofa I find it good and I can hear the tv haha cant watch it tho while sewing lol. (that would be multi tasking ...I should try it haha)

coalrange1 - 2013-09-01 15:53:00

oh colaie my computer just point blank refuses to multi task I tried opeing two photos at once as one wouldnt open quickly enouff and the cpmputer kicked up a real hiffy fit and then froze to say I dont multi task.
I need a computer that can multi task. as well as a sweing mchine that can display the tv on the front of it so we can multi task then eh. heheheeeee

Good morning! Up you get. The start of a new week is on the way. Lets go get it. I have to ring the bloody dentist this morning...I'm shaking already! I hate them and only go when it is necessary.

Coalie, Im like you I like to have the telly on when I sew, so I have put sewing table in rumpus room in nice sunny spot but still keep smaller machine for sneaky sews on the kitchen table. I plan to completely take over the rumpus room complete with wall hung telly just for me but thats a wee while away. I've just made up the batter of my Amish friendship cake and its in the oven...have four bags of batter to pass on. It sure does use a lot of ingredients but smells divine cooking

vivz2 - 2013-09-02 11:01:00
45296

thanks for cuppas
mmm to the Amish cake, I can smell it tis the right wind haha
eek no don't talk dentists :( I too only go when its past necessary although the last time I went I hadn't been for years but needed a tooth out, dentist went on and on about making a list of everything I would need doing so we could work through it and whew only needed the tooth out and nothing else.
jugs boiling ....
hope your all having a nice day, im going to go mow the lawns.....

coalrange1 - 2013-09-02 12:12:00

grizzvk - 2013-09-02 12:24:00
45299

I've been! She was really nice and even complimented me on how clean my teeth are...I wasn't expecting that! There is no decay...just broken teeth so I go back on Monday to make a plan for the next few months to get breakages fixed. Whew. Glad it's not urgent...too expensive to get much done at once! So now I'm happy and can get on with my day with a sense of calm. Yay.
