It's finished, Irene Blanck's design, A Paradise of Birds.

A Paradise Of Birds

I am so excited! Irene Blanck has commenced a new block of the month, A Paradise Of Birds.

I purchased the first instalment today at Patch N Quilt, Gisborne from Mary. The completed quilt is stunning so I hope in 8 months time I will be on my way to owning one of my own.

FNWF achievement

I had just stated to sip from my glass of wine and enjoy the party when my SES pager went off. Driver verses kangaroo, driver ok, kangaroo not ok. Return home to begin again with a sip of wine and managed to almost complete the needle turn block for the Irene Block, Message In A Bottle. I am beginning to see the finishing line for this project.

See you there!

Book launch Irene Blanck.

A new book for my already filled to capacity book shelf. I fell in love with Irene's patterns in the book so I just had to buy it. Personally signed!

For some time now I have been working on Irene's, Message In A Bottle, so now I am really motivated to get in closer to completion.

Catching a plane to Brisbane then a bus to Lismore to assist the NSW SES with their storm jobs.

I'm thinking this is going to be one wet long weekend!

Gisborne, Victoria, remembers the Anzacs!

A Lone Pine has been planted at the Gisborne Cemetery to commemorate 100 years since the landing at Gallipoli. Let us watch it grow!
