The Flimsy!

A nice little achievement for the afternoon -only about forty inches square, but at least I will have a finish. Could be a nice puppy quilt, a play quilt or a stroller quilt! Let's hope for a quilting start tomorrow.I have managed to acquire a nice little stash of cutie Japanese lights - I'm not sure of their fate - I just love looking at them!
Must tell you - my grandson Bailey is in Sydney representing WA in AFL in the State team - well, they had a convincing win on Saturday and Bay did us all proud - perhaps we'll hear a lot more of him in times to come! Also Byron's burns are coming along nicely though he's still having dressings at Perth's Princess Margaret Children's Hospital - should be all over soon and he can play his beloved AFL, too.


Oh, another thing - I fiddle away with my ipad quite a bit and have discovered how to buy Kindle books and download them on the ipad - oh, yes, I've been a bit naughty and have added a few really nice, modern quilting books to my library, more about that soon.
