Yep, it's Norm's favourite time of day... 'Born in the USA I was... Born in the USAAA'
Hey man... that's like, cool man... heavy....
Enough of the furbies. It's been another mad week. Loads of quilting, pattern writing, bundling stuff to be posted, finishing magazine projects etc. Today was the day to do not much at all. So I fiddled
Blossie shouted morning coffee at The Engine Room, a cafe in Toowoomba. Delicious sights and aromas and lots of treats for the senses. How ridiculously gorgeous is this wrapping paper?
and the most ridiculous thing is that I wrapped it round a stretched canvas
and hung it above my kitchen sink. What do you think?
maybe it's from Paris :-)
Anyway, I want it in fabric....
Peter Rabbit followed us home
Too cute, those little tins. And just feast your eyes on this panel from The Quilters Store in Brisbane
Delish
Mother Nature painted the sky with wispy, feathery clouds today. They were whipped up from one horizon to the other. Almost surreal... and we were out and about without the camera so you'll just have to take my word for it. Tomorrow we head off to the coast to wriggle our toes in the sand for a few days. Away from the frosty, icy westerly winds of the Downs in Winter
And I'm taking some stitching
And my funny little man doesn't know it yet :-)
See you again on Friday
My Etsy store will remain open, I'll fill the orders when I get home
Love the picture over the window..that's a great place for it. OH, and your kitchen.....GORGEOUS!!!

Cheryl I just bought a HEAP of fatties from the Peter Rabbit range on ebay ... I can't wait for them to arrive, soooo cute!! Love your kitchen piccy, what a great idea!
We experienced that colder windy weather of yours when we visited "Glengallen" and Nobby last Saturday ... we had a lovely day out but oh boy it was chilly!!!!
Have a fabulous time at the beach, hope the weather is kind to you :o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)

Hi Cheryl, your wrapping paper picture is beautiful, and yes, it would make great fabric. Hope you are having nice warm days away, it is still very cold out here on the farm. I am sewing up a storm trying to keep warm in front of the fire. Have fun!!

First I wish my kitchen looked that neat, people working different hours there is something always going on there, love the idea with the paper. I have often framed cards to hang. Second I have that Peter Rabbit panel, made it for my grandson, it is so cute.
