Quick Progress update

Hello lovely bloggers,

Just a quick update from me in my lunch break as I am flying to Adelaide this afternoon as I am presenting the national History conference tomorrow (twice, actually).

I had a great stitching weekend and below are my before and after photos of Isabella's Garden and Christmas Couriers.  I feel really happy with how they are both progressing.

Will "talk" to you all when I get back, later in the week.

Bye for now,

Lots to report and a Happy Dance (Take 2)

Hello lovely bloggers,

Well, I have lots to report this post.

My Happy Dance (Take 2) is because I picked up Baboushka from the framers the other day.  Here she is, I am really pleased with her (please ignore the shadow on the right hand side.  I have decided to give her to my Dear Sister for Christmas.  The green matt is sueded - it looks really great in the flesh, so to speak.


I also have a couple of progress pics:





Some progress on Isabella's Garden

September TUSAL - the purple on the top is from Isabella's garden
 A new start:  Mirabilia's Christmas Courier by Nora Corbett,  now I did not buy the pattern all chewed up like this - that was my naughty cats - Milo and Furio.  I cam home from work one day and found the outer envelope and one page of the chart (luckily it was a photocopy) all shredded up!



And here are the two of them - looking like butter wouldn't melt in their mouths!


First progress on Christmas Couriers - the greens look really vibrant in real life.
 Lastly, I wanted to show off my new doona cover set - pretty isn't it?

Well, that's all for me now - off to do some stitching.

Bye for now,

Love, Kaye xoxox

P.S. I also meant to tell you about the storm that we had in Melbourne yesterday - a month's rain in one day!  The most rain in September since 1955.  All of the planes were grounded because of the thunder, lightning, rain and hail.  It is now really cold - only 9 degrees celsius - Brrrrr!!!!
