How beautiful is this - sunshine at long last! My young family have taken a trip to see friends in Bunbury and to ride the new highway. Our olive tree has been severely pruned, probably all at the wrong time and the last of the beautiful Kalamatas are falling to the ground.
I had some desperately needed fun yesterday - the gremlins have left my body and I popped up and down and made a present - all made in one day and bound last night!
Pretty Kaffe's - my fingers have been itching for a while and I am waiting on quite a lot to come, so I was able to throw these fabrics into a melting pot and now I have one of my presents done!
My enthusiasm for gift-making is at top peak, so must make the most of it!
Isn't nature wonderful - a newly hatched emu chick at the Royal Show - obviously this is a case of mutual curiosity - a wonderful memory for Heidi - check out the painted fingernails, especially for the big day out!
gasp! love the table runner...what glorious colors!
ReplyDeletewhat an adorable pic of heidi...who's more curious? her or the emu? precious! ☺
Lovely project (pretty Kaffe's is right). Cute picture of Heidi with emu chick. I remember painting my daughter's nails when she was around that age :).

Glad to read that you're feeling better. And please tell Heidi how pretty we think her fingernails are. What an adorable photo of her and the emu chick.
ReplyDeleteI really like those off-set white squares. I have to say, I don't think I've ever seen an olive tree in real life. I should add that to my bucket list.

Lurline, I love your posts! This quilt is absolutely wonderful. Kaffe is my favorite fabric designer and I love this little quilt/table runner. The tree of olives makes me want to back my bags and move to the Bush! Your Heidi is precious and so is the the little Emu she is looking at. We had great weather here in Maryland as well and hope it stays nice for a little longer for the both us. Thanks so much for your posts! You give me inspirations. Stephanie from Maryland
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful table runner Lurline! Heidi is SO super cute, and so is that baby Emu. My kids love going to the zoo to see animals. Thanks for leaving such kind comments on my blog, they are very appreciated *hugs*
ReplyDeleteWonderful table runner! Love the pic of Heidi and the emu chick too!
