wednesday colour...

A little colour to brighten your week.

this moment...

{this moment} - A Friday ritual.

A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
inspired by soulemama
Mama baking banana bread, Huckle trying his first taste of banana. He was quite into it & kept reaching his little hands out for more.
This is a very realistic shot of my kitchen; bench full of baking ingredients, baby in bumbo, dirty dishes, phone , compost bowl... aah, organised chaos.
I know it says 'no words' in the description, I just couldn't help myself.

wednesday colour...

I've been going through my photo archives & making up colour layouts with some of my favourite shots. I know many others have done this, this is my little take on it. I hope to post at least one a week. Here's number one.

finally, a winner...

Ok. So as usual, I'm a little late.

The winner of the vintage sheet fat quarters is...

The lovely Christina of a little bird told me.

Congratulations Christina!

I'm off now to try & get my house into a little order. Huckle is growing so fast, I keep having to update his clothes & pack old ones away. I've also got to set up the guest bedroom for the great northern visitors. Off I go then, hope you have a lovely start to the week.

in the studio...

I'd love to be able to get out here more often; at the moment though, it's all about hangin out with Huckle & trying to keep my head above water with daily living. I don't think I can put off the housework for too much longer, but sometimes you just need to escape & do something crafty.
Here's a little snapshot of what I'm up to...
I'm halfway through a strawberry cushion, using this tutorial.
I'm playing with this gorgeous cone of silk. It was gifted to me by a friends mum, who brought it with her from adelaide.
I'm about to stitch a few hottie covers to cover two naked hot water bottles. My mum, sister & nephew are coming to visit next week. Considering they're coming from north queensland, they might possibly notice how bloody freezing it is down here. Maybe I can sew a belt onto the covers, so they can wear the hotties. Ha ha, now there's an idea!
Other than this, I've got at least ten works in progress... at least. One of these days they'll be finished. Ha, I don't really believe that. There'll always be projects on the go, some just take a little longer than others to see the finish line.
I hope your sunday is a happy one.
