Life put into perspective by Mother Nature

It is with much sadness we learnt of the horrendous quake in Christchurch on Tuesday 22nd February 2011.  Even though we are in Invercargill and all safe and well and no family have been hurt or taken we all feel shocked and dazed along with being unable to help.  Our thoughts are with everyone in Christchurch and we thank all those international  parties who have come a long way to help.

The devastation in Christchurch has hit hard and therefore I cannot be joyous at the moment but I am grateful my family is all well.

Take care and live each day with happy thoughts.

Wow! What a week.

Hello fellow bloggers, what a week its been with three children one a teenager! say no more and finally we have sold our house, it has taken 10 months yeah!  But now amongst my excitment of organising classes I have to finish packing the house, have a garage sale, help shift my mother all in the space of 7 days.  But life is one big party after another!  I have organised the class starting packs and I am trying to get class samples finished.  I think it will be some late nights. 

Sunshine and Stitching

What a fabulous day to wake up to, but you can feel the autumn is coming.  I have been stitching and completing paper work for my classes.  But it is Valentines Day and my husband left a wonderfully wrapped surprise package on my bed for when I got back from school help this morning.  A fabulour Pandora ring with hearts on it!  How lucky I am to have such a wonderful caring fabulous with the kids husband.

Hope to have some photos soon.

Being Brave

Finally I have stepped out of my comfort zone and am about to do what I love!.  Applique, Patchwork Quilting.  Yeah finally!  Yes I am about to take classes and pass on my knowledge I have gained over the last 25 years being addicted to fabric.

I am starting classes on applique which is my first love!  Don't let my husband hear that!  When I work out how to load photos and get around this blogging I will have more to see.
