Snippets from the past month!!

Has it really being a whole month since I was last here!! Well, what have I been up to......

 I have been catching up with friends over dinners, lunches and coffees some of which were put on hold while I was stage managing the latest Bay Theatre Players show... now finished with a lovely flower arrangement received as a "thank you".....

Then it was off to Canberra for a "Winter" wedding at this lovely chapel......

..... Hayley and her partner Mark travelled down from Burleigh Heads where they now live and work to attend the wedding....

and here I am with Hayley.....

Canberra Winters can be a bit bleak......

....but I'm not sure what this little tree just peeking out was thinking - had it forgotten it was Winter or was it a bit of wishful thinking!

A bit of retail therapy while in Canberra....these are the important purchases! 

While Mark had to return to Burleigh, Hayley spent the following week here at home as the following weekend marked the 1st anniversary of the tragic accident that took the life of her dad and another loved father in a plane crash here on the South Coast.... the anniversary was noted by a flyover of 14 small planes, followed by a barbeque all organised by the local aero club....here's Hayley about to take off (as a passenger!) in one of the planes....

During the past few weeks Megan celebrated her birthday in Munich so I just had to "send" her a present - via Face Book - with a donut and candle for her and a donut each for Hayley - who was here then - and me....

...she told us we could eat the chocolates - she plans to be away for at least a couple of years!

A finish- this book - really enjoyed it!

By the middle of June I had my blocks for Nature's Journey finished - I'm sure they were in my previous post .... and thought - "Great! I'll get a head start on July".... did that happen? No :( so here I am with just the centre block put together....

.... am now back working on it....every spare minute - well nearly! 

Meanwhile I continued crocheting my blanket .... when little "miss" here hadn't claimed it as a really cosy spot to sleep during this cold weather!

and have finished this table runner - eventually!! 

So that's the month that was!

Am just about to head out the door on a chilly night but joining friends for a night of stitching beckons......

Will be back sooner rather than later... next time!

Happy Stitching...
