I hope you are having a wonderful New Year so far.
Today in Australia we are experiencing bad storms,floods ,fires and very hot weather which is normal for our summer . In the centre of Australia and surrounds they are getting days extremely hot with 40C and 45C heat . Luckily I live on the East coast with a beautiful 26C temperature today with a beautiful sunrise at 5/57 am and the sun will be setting at 8/07 pm so a lovely day in all.
I spent some of it by the water enjoying a lunch with 2 of my big grandchildren (University ones) and hubby .
I hope you all have been enjoying some sewing time wherever you are .
I have been preparing some applique pieces for some 3/12 inch blocks .
Not much else happening in the sewing department during the last 2 weeks.
Sharing some lovely Christmas gifts from some dear quilting friends ,
A beautiful table runner. I am so lucky.
More presents .I was so thrilled to receive these lovely decorations made for me. I am so spoiled.
and how cute is this Stress doll, I need it lately haha (With my caring duties.)
Preparing my applique, These blocks will be good to be able to hand sew and take with me in the caravan for a holiday in February.
That is one of the beaches a couple of Kilometers from us. Scary storm.
Time to finish ,Thank you for calling in and commenting .I really appreciate the comments.
Take Care .

Happy New Year Jen, getting the blocks ready for hand sewing while you are away is a good idea. Hope you have a lovely holiday in the van.
a pretty table runner, my sister who lives in Melbourne sent me a stress doll about 12 years ago. Applique project looks interesting, have a good caravan trip and hpe you get plenty of applique done whilst away
Hi Jen, it is good to have a little project to work on in the caravan. I find that I don't get a lot done on our trips. Where are you off to in Feb? We are heading out sometime early March for the south. Vic & SA. Love the stress doll, I have needed one of those lately!!! All good now though. It is not the children anymore it is the elderly parent!
Lost you for a while but found you, I though you had a email site so that I followed you by email.
