Sharing experiences
What a way to go.
Thread painting a quilt.
I'm finally working on the thread painting of the image. I'm using 7 shades of gold and brown, they are not exactly the same as the image, but I can change them a little with ink. Quilting a project like this, I generally start one side and move to the other, changing the threads as…
Finally back on track.
The housework is completed and the gardener had been consulting about the new work they did in the garden. It all sounds rather grand, but it's not fancy and it's so nice to have someone take that responsibility and give Keith and I more free time. This guy in my tree is enjoying a brief…
Funny things from kids.
A comment from my daughter Rachael yesterday. "How funny is my baby girl…while watching Mama Mia she starts sobbing uncontrollably because the daughter is riding off into the sunset to her wedding…why was Tilly crying??? Because she doesn't want to leave her mummy when she gets married….so at 4 she's decided, no wedding, just a…
Fathers Day
It's still raining…. I've told this guy to go inside his house, but….. he takes no notice of me. Jamie was caught in flood waters for several hours on his way to film in the snow at Perisher. As for the project….well, it's Fathers Day and we had an adventure with the family this morning……
The Challenge Process.
It's dark and absolutely pouring outside and it's only 7.00 pm. I can't believe that this time last week I was still in London waiting for the plane. I've had adventures in Thailand, been home and slotted into "MOTHER MODE" and "HOUSEKEEPING MODE' and tonight we watched miss Tilly make her TV debut tonight as…
What do you do with all those photos.?
The entire time I've been traveling I've been playing with converting my photos to paintings through the computer. I have a traveling sketch pad Bamboo it works well onmy mac. I suggest you click on the video on their site and it will give you much more information than I can give you in this…
Home at last.
I left Bangkok yesterday. Excited at the prospect of going home. I collected yet another pair of pyjamas from Mr Qantas. He gives them to you to sleep in on the plane… this time I kept them in plastic and gave them to Callie. It's worth the trip to get the jamas. As I write…
Bangkok flower Market
I DID go to the flower market this morning. I had a taxi drop me off from the hotel. I suddenly found myself, (the only foreigner) amongst a sea of Thai people… which is probable because I'm in Thailand. Gees how am I going to get back again….? OK, the hotel is on the river,…
OOOh, the bags are packed again. I don't leave here until evening, but I need to get an early start photographing tomorrow… I left it too late today to go to the flower market, too much procrastinating. I was happy with the trip on the river though…. I used my BIG lens, and it's heavy…
