27/02/2018  Photo a Day  Something old

This clock is the same age as I am because my Father bought it for my Mother when I was born, therefore it is almost seventy years old. 

A Bit of piecing finished today

I started this project over twelve months and I am very glad I have got it to this stage.

Pennie

Last weekend I went to the Pennant Hills Pub with some Squilters one of whom is doing some very small hexagons; someone suggested Pennie buy fabric already printed with Hexies and today whilst tidying in my sewing room (read procrastinating) I found this piece I bought in Tasmania last year.

So there you go Pennie complete with details now all you have to do is find it!

For at least forty five years I have had four hooks with a peg attached and I have used them to hang undies etc. in the bathroom.I have kept an eye out for them whenever and where ever  I go shopping but I have never seen them. 

Last night I was watching a true crime show and here were my hooks in a forensic lab I couldn't believe it!
