Monday's sewing....

Were I work on Mondays ......when its really quite and I have all my jobs done I can do my own sewing.....so yesterday between customers I was able to get 2 of the circles pieced together and spent the rest of the day taking out all the papers......then when I got home I pieced the 3rd circle and then hand stitched the inner circle.....I have now to make the 3" compass and hand stitch it on.......


I am really impress with my scrappy compass......there is a lot more to do.....funny how none of the fabric I have in my small stash is right for the background or the border......

News from the garden......

We have had a 3 piece metal outdoor setting for about 12 years and has been looking a little rusty and tired....so Jens took it to Tim the Powdercoat man in Kawana.......when Jens said what colour we wanted.....they said "are you sure"....Really......they have no sense of adventure....anyway I got a call to say it was ready and collected it yesterday.......


I love it.......what do you think.....
