Finally I can add photos...HipHipHooray

Well, I have no idea what has been happening with my blog, but everytime I have gone to post some photos recently, I have have been unable to do so....I had just about reached the point where I figured that it might be time to close down my litle blog and take it as a sign that it wasn't what I was meant to be doing with my time....well, on checking again tonight, I see that I can (for the moment) do proper posts...so let's just see how I go!!!  I can't even recall what I wanted to post a photo about...  Let me think!!!!!
Oh yes, the stitchers angel swap I am in....here is what arrived a couple of weeks ago.....A most lovely Rosalie Quinlan angel....you might recall I made a heap of these last year...but this one is particularly lovely with the embroidery on her wings...and this very cute little ceramic token which says: "shoot for the moon, even if you miss, you'll land among the stars"...anyway...thanks so much to my Angel who sent these...and sorry I haven't been able to thank you previously.....



And here are a few photos of what I have been busy making for the person I am an Angel to.....



Last weekend I also went to a market in Northcote and bought this lovely little collection: some buttons, fridge magnets, beautiful cards, really lovely wooden box, a fabbo brooch and a couple of notebooks made with old novel covers... we really are spoilt here in Melbourne for some wonderful hand made markets....

Hi Lisa, glad to see you are able to stay on line. I love things you have made. I meant to go to the Northcote market but had other things on. See you soon,

Just looking at your blog, new to it - because recently I saw your name through the comments on the Homespun heart blog back on their noel swap (I won't be able to participate in their swap this time around) but this "pear" in your pictures intrigues me. Would it serve as a pin cushion? I am just curious.

Love all your quilts and things.
Nice!!

Hi Lisa

I'm finally trying to leave a comment, I often look at the lovely things you make & don't have any luck with the comment. Hope to see you soon. Barb B
