Well, I have been busy on and off completing various projects. This is for one of my work colleagues who has gone off to have a baby...I made this quilt out of a very cute range of fabrics called "Little Apples".
I made this quilt from Leesa Chandler's "Under the Australian Sun" range for my cousin and her husband who I will be staying with when I visit Germany later in the year as a thank you.
I have 2 work colleagues having babies within weeks of each other and we had their farewell morning tea this week so I decided to try my hand at making macarons....and these little beauties were the result. They were a HUGE hit with my co-workers...and in the end, very easy, once I had reduced the cooking time and the temperature. The first batch I made looked absolutely perfect, However, they were as hard as rocks....so into the bin they had to go!!! 
Here is a link to the original recipe.
Finally, one of my friends' daughter's school is having a fundraiser for the school and the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness centre.
They are having an exhibition amongst other activites whereby students and others can decorate a "bust" for display...the event is called "Girls Bust Out" and I have decorated a bust for the exhibitions. I had loads of fun decorating this with recycled sewing bits and pieces... I can't wait to see all of the other busts next weekend.
