Now I’m working on the arms. I will work on each one separately then put them into position on the quilt. The bottom arm looks a little strange but there is extra shading to go on before you see the final product. I’ve used the same fabric as I used on the base of the…

Sharing experiences
What a way to go.

I’ve been pushing it a little too much over the past week and my body told me so today so I took it a little easier this afternoon. (even to having a sleep on the couch)I have 10 white doves that are free….One day a young pigeon called Alfredo flew in and joined the group….
It’s raining.
It’s still raining.Living in the Driest State in the Driest Country in the world it’s lovely to see the rain. However, I do prefer the weather warm and sunny and I’m already over the grey day, the damp and the heaters on.A grey day does nothing for my creative spirit. Then again it could be…

Back in the land of the living.
So I’m back in the land of the living. I’m using my friends computer to log into my blog. I’ve already written it and it will almost be a short story. However, I have to wait till tomorrow evening till I can get on my own computer to add photos etc. In the mean time…
Traveling again.
I had a 4.30 am start this morning. Even so as I waited outside for the limo, I marveled at the fabulous weather. It was warm (around 20 deg centigrade) the stars were brilliant and I enjoyed the chorus of waking birds. I could live in this climate. Yesterday I went to the Tiwi Islands….
