Its been so long......

Life has been rather shattering for me and my mind has not been in a space to blog. i have been "lurking" every day but just could not bring myself to put fingers onto a keyboard and write!!

Yesterday we had a teaparty for Amies birthday and everyone said they had a good time. It is ages since I drank tea out of a fine china cup and it was very enjoyable. The tea tasted so much better.

Will try and post some photos on here.

Today

I have been at my friends kitchen today playing! She is a caterer and I have been helping her make some desserts for an evening at her church. I had a great day and made lots of goodies. I love it.

I have started making a few things for my Christmas stall at Dunkleys Craft Show at the end of August. I am making a quilt with Christmas words on it of things that are important to me. I will try and get some photos on here. And I hope to post a bit more often.

Sunday

Some days are up and some are down. We had lots of aftershakes yesterday and I think they have gotten to me. Today I feel very flat and it is hard to get motivated to do anything. for two pins I could go back to bed and watch DVD's all day but I can't let myself do this. I need to tidy up in my living area, it has become such a mess.

hope you are all having a great day. :))

Earthquake

Well its happened again. It was less in size but much stronger as it was closer to the surface. I am one of the fortunate ones in that all my family are safe and there has not been damage to my house. Mum's unit has some problem with the sand and water but it will be ok. Just when it will stop flowing is the question. They say 65 dead its awful

Back writing

Time has gone so fast. For a long time I have not done much sewing for myself. Have been making clothes which has been taking up my time. My Mum has come to live in a unit on my property and life in general has been intersting!!!

I am making a quilt for a retreat that I am planning for Hamner this year. I will make a few examples and then hopefully they will be inspiring for other people.

I have been spending lots of time browsing around other peoples blogs and being inspired. There are lots of wonderful and talented people out there in blogland.

Will post a photo of bubble gum and jellybeans soon when it is a bit nearer completion.

Its going to be fun

Well here I am back again. I have been browsing around blogs and have got excited about the chance to get a bit more organised for Christmas presents. And I have even worked out how to link back to the lovely Creative Studios blog and to put the button onto my sidebar!!!!

I had planned to start early on some sewing as my granson stayed here last night and I dropped him off at 7am to be a participant in the kids programme at What Now. But look at my cat. He loves to sit on my fabrics and can I disturb him? No. I will work on something else instead.

My Postings

I am finding it hard to beleive that feb was the last time Iposted. time is just drifting by.

My head is in a fug these days. I am in a mess in my home and so is my mind. i love to blog but it is in the too hard basket these days. I am still floating around and looking at my favourite blogs but these words don't flow like they usually do.

I am in that time of starting things and not finishing them.

Be patient with me and I will be back.
