11/07/2019   Photo a Day  My Handwriting

Naughty Molly

I made this quilt in 1998 at a Michelle Marvig Workshop in Orange, I hand quilted it when I was on three months sick leave following surgery.When Macy was a puppy she chewed the edges so I made the border a bit smaller and rebound it , TWICE!
This morning I had to drop a form up to the local Hospital for admission before the end of the year and when I arrived home 30 minutes later Molly had chewed a hole right through the three layers.

10/07/2019  Photo a Day  My fave hobby

There were 22 Grandchildren on the Doyle  (Mum's) side of the family and in the last few years I have caught up with most of them in all corners of this land.

   On Saturday Di,Lee and myself went on a Roadtrip after leaving home at 6.30 AM we arrived in Cootamundra to find the Patchwork Shop only opens on a Saturday with prior notice, just a shame their web site didn't reflect this !We then stopped in Young first the Patchwork Shop then the Base Store and the Bakery then back on the road to Grenfell this time.

There is a Gift Shop in Grenfell situated in an old Pub building so there were rooms and rooms of gift and Christmas stuff, spent time and money here as well, lunch at the local take away which was OK and then the Highlight of the day the new Silo Art which was superb.
