Last week was my birthday and I celebrated the day with lots of food! Morning tea and lunch at work then delicious dinner at Elizabeth and Matt's with ChaCha, Jenni, Kurt and Mum. On Saturday the whole family and dear friends Lynell and Darren came for lunch . The little ones kept us entertained all day and were so much fun.
Saturday night I finished putting Pathways and Crossroads together - the colours are a bit stronger than showing in this night-time photo.
ChaCha stayed over and we had a fun Mothers' Day morning gardening with the new wheelbarrow Lynell and Darren put together, blowing bubbles, playing in the makeup drawer etc. Lunch with Mum then it was time to take ChaCha home.
Sunday sewing time was spent sewing my Swoon blocks into a quilt top. There is one more border to add and, when the extra backing fabric arrives, I'll send it away for quilting.
Dear Lynell is making me some stained glass lampshades for the bedroom - she is so clever - the finishing touch for the room. On Saturday, with Robyn and Paula, we are going to see "The Bodyguard" and then "The Play That Goes Wrong" - on our way to Sydney we will be shopping for bases - maybe crystal. Hope we find some.
