I Am Special...
One of my new friends in blogland ''Cheryll'' gave me an ''Award''...
her ''Sunshine Award'' for my blog
I am feeling so special as I haven't had an award for my blog from anyone hahahah... but that is OK as I do know a lot of bloggers don't like being tagged for awards...
but in says that....
I am going to pass it on to a couple of others in blogland
and then ''only if they want too'' they can put it up on their blog... mainly I would just like them to know how much I do enjoy visiting their blogs....
Christmas Secret Santa....
At my friend Dawn's we are doing our Secret Santa for 2010...
The two who are running it this year ''me and Annie Mac'' decided that we would do runners...
I have done two as I was enjoying doing my main one hahaha...
This is my seconds runner which I will either use as a spare or for a raffle...
It has a green binding the same colour as the tree which is a little hard to see... I machine stitched in the ditch along the background of each tree block then I free motioned little pebbles all over the background...
This one is going to my swap partner... I am lovin the braided centre...
I have free motioned all over this one with a loopy motion using a thread I purchased last week...
it is ''Superior Threads... Highlights... in a beige'' very easy to use and I found it didn't break much once I got my ''mojo movement going'' hahaha...
I am off to Perth tomorrow for about 12 days woohoo.... my daughter is going to Bali on Sunday for about 8 days so I am house sitting her place with her cat ''Benson''... my plan is to get a quilt made for my sister who is turning 40 in October...
Plus I have the skin specialist, the dentist (last visit I hope for awhile), have lunch and coffee with a few friends.... and the big one.... make contact with my little brother daughter who was taken away from us when she was a little weeny girl... she is now 18 and has come looking for her Dad's family.... I am quite excited plus a little scared at the same time... I have seem some photo's of her as a teenager and everyone says she is like me hahaha poor girl hahaha it is going to be really nice to see her and form a relationship with her... and tell her about her Dad and what we use to get up to as kids.......... mmmmm maybe only some of that hahahahaha
Luv T xxx
