Our heatwave continues - I am ever so happy to be in my lovely, cool house! It makes me feel a little spoiled and greedy knowing there is such hardship in the world, so I do count my blessings!.jpg)
I have been making a baby quilt for a little one who is 7 months old - just the binding to do! He is just starting to pull himself up on things, so I must finish it and give it to him!

Trialling crochet - I have been playing with tutorials from Attic24 and do you mind if I knit - started with soft, gentle colours, but have the urge to do 'colour'! I really love the 'thicker treble' stitch created by do you mind if i knit, it is so very neat - that's the larger square on the left!.jpg)
I was unable to show you these last Sunday - too difficult to upload with computer problems. I am so proud of my Danielle's artistic talent - this painting of our infamous Ned Kelly she did in 1992 and has just given it to her brother-in-law, Ben, for his birthday. We all love it!By the way, talk about computer problems - all caused by my firewall being taken down and not reinstated - easily solved!

I also took this pic to show you - our Australian Anzac Biscuits - ever so popular, they were demolished before we started our barbie last Sunday!
