A Little Bit Of Cooking
Yesterday I spent the morning cooking pies and quiches for my kids in Perth... for their lunches as they go off to work... all in all 31 pies were made... and yes there were a couple of hands that kept trying to hijack one or two but a stern sideways look was enough for those hands to retreat very quickly......
Quiche Lorraine, mushroom and feta, tuna and onion also tomato and feta.... they smelt so good while baking....... mmmmmmmmm yummoTuna Pies
Tuna Pie Recipe
1 can 425g tuna in brine
2 cups grated cheese
2 eggs
1 onions sliced
2 sheets of puff pastry
Drain tuna and mix well with other ingredients.
Line your pie plate with one sheet of pastry, add tuna mix, top with other pastry sheet.
Brush with milk and cook in a moderately hot oven until golden brown
Enjoy........

MMMMM What Have I Been Doing???
Well I have been busy working on a couple of ''Christmas projects'' for a couple of events on other sites that I am involved with... but my lovely friend Val sent me some lime green fabric... yummo... she knows I love it... so I thought I would make a cushion for my bed with it using navy embroidery thread... I like the look so far......
This is my ''secret santa'' in progress... a placemat... love the plum pudding pattern out of ''Homespun'' magazine and just had to use it in something.
This one is my ''Christmas cushion'' in progress for a competition among ourselves at my friend Dawn's site... just some hand stitching to be done then I will show you the finished cushion....
This was an event on IFQ... a table topper... I did mine in Batiks and I must say I like the finished look... and found the only way to quilt it was by griding the whole thing... now that I have it quilted and binded I think it needed that much quilting done on it.
Now will I keep it or give it away as a Christmas present???????????

What Was In My "Stitchin Angel" Partners Parcel This is what I sent my partner.... Oh plus a runner that I didn't take a photo of... I have heard from her and she is very very happy with her gifts..... I am waiting for mine now... from ''who'' I do not know..... ssssssshhhhhhh

20 More Little Baskets

And yes I am now caught up... have even done this Sunday's blocks... my wall is starting to look very ''covered''... hahaha.... I have made a decision to do these as a ''quilt as you go''... next trip to the city will be to purchase backing and sashing fabric and to check out what type of batting I might use.

The Finished Quilt All done and quilted and the last stitches on the binding this morning and Hubby has delivered it while in town today.... I am sure that the new baby will have lots of play time on this rug.

A Beautiful Cushion For Me
This gorgeous cushion arrived in our mail yesterday... it was from a swap on another site... I just love it and it will go so well in my lounge room.
