I haven't lived in my own home but been staying as a carer with my mother in law and popping home daily to check on things since she returned from her rehab in the SEQ. Between doctors appointments, physio, chiro, specialists and exercise classes there's not much time left to get much done!

I promise I will however Mum (in-law) returned from a 3-month trip to Toowoomba after her heart attack in late February and I'm live-in carer at the moment until things settle down and we get everything in place for her. She had great care with my sister in law down there but she wanted to be 'home'. Needless to say, she has no internet and I'm just popping in and out of home to feed our animals and spend an hour or so with them each day.

Think I'm halfway there??? They're looking really pretty in the Tilda fabrics, some vintage, some new and all chosen by our lovely sponsor Dawn at <a href="https://kittyrosecottage.com/" target="_blank">Kitty Rose Cottage</a>. These are great to hand stitch in front of the television of an evening or when you feel like some quiet slow stitching....I love them. Dawn has them prepared monthly in a kit if you'd like to join in <a href="https://kittyrosecottage.com/collections/lucy-boston-kits" target="_blank">HERE</a>. You'll get two blocks a month, which I find is quite manageable.....you're making a quilt without realising it!

I'm doing it as a BOM through the quilt store where Pami works - <a href="https://patchworkangel.com.au/product/expression-of-interest-fabric-and-thread-packs-for-angelica/">The Patchwork Angel.</a> </div><div><br /></div><div> I'm using Tilda again but the last ranges....'Çhic Escape' and 'Daisyfield' which I bought from our fabulous FNSI sponsor, Dawn of <a href="https://kittyrosecottage.com/collections/tilda-fabric" target="_blank">Kitty Rose Cottage</a>. These are my most favourite Tilda fabrics so far (but I say that every time!!). I know Dawn has a little bit still in her store so pop over to add some to your stash. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitvjlcwDHUK3uvvxLc6yRKCIh6lh9DrxXn9aT0IejjheOiXzI_YAc19SftlXmll6gJ4BUgsM3s-3Pr1kRe8NbVpmhdcfvr58gd2oF2bPPE4rrBqvalDV9GwvTqkIjpuTvruT6BieFV8_v6NWu4rJWzrH0BYKUeKJ8w1rKrxYSYOoZKmdLEcvnTvp11/s939/Angelica%20Collage.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="939" data-original-width="881" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitvjlcwDHUK3uvvxLc6yRKCIh6lh9DrxXn9aT0IejjheOiXzI_YAc19SftlXmll6gJ4BUgsM3s-3Pr1kRe8NbVpmhdcfvr58gd2oF2bPPE4rrBqvalDV9GwvTqkIjpuTvruT6BieFV8_v6NWu4rJWzrH0BYKUeKJ8w1rKrxYSYOoZKmdLEcvnTvp11/w600-h640/Angelica%20Collage.png" width="600" /></a></div>Just a bit of needleturn on the chain block (which I think I'll do at FNSI *wink*!) and then I'll be waiting in anticipation for block two.<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5DYg8LWLvIScItlayR2Y3egQ6Bt-nqHL1Yy-ucuU94J-WVeyYZ0TdrXi7rYKspbiIS44dIqLR9G1pG4dPivHo61Npaxeo3A1vU8tn6HT5lD3E77PvTVKV2dWfDm6Nio0Am0wBKb2GMuWaSTNSn7Qo6osledbFPgDbv-_t9iN8exIRd06QsLUxC6VU/s561/images%20(3).png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="90" data-original-width="561" height="51" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5DYg8LWLvIScItlayR2Y3egQ6Bt-nqHL1Yy-ucuU94J-WVeyYZ0TdrXi7rYKspbiIS44dIqLR9G1pG4dPivHo61Npaxeo3A1vU8tn6HT5lD3E77PvTVKV2dWfDm6Nio0Am0wBKb2GMuWaSTNSn7Qo6osledbFPgDbv-_t9iN8exIRd06QsLUxC6VU/s320/images%20(3).png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div>Now I think it's time to draw a winner from last month's FNSI.

Look at those toothy-pegs! Mr B had bought the panel on his way back from a work trip away....he actually stopped into a little quilt shop in Childers and bought it for me to make up for our boy! I didn't add much....just free motion quilted it and added a binding. I sent it a long with a 'resoftable' Thomas the Tank Engine Toy.....it's made entirely of recycled soft drink bottles...but soft and cuddly.....very clever. Ryker loves trains so he took to it like a duck to water and making the quilt with double wadding, I think that it's going to get a lot of use too this winter! </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp3C-P4NVadnJgLJVbAvYAMaGHIaB_Vf91BWm7SAoPPQIYt2zy39h_nzw89oeZ9j0IkqRMIqjMHa_Vq0BJavFzQ3HhXURziZtT8k80aYYRNjZ_mL9DrUQJAGJx6wrOnJMG1Ar0_EbI2rkQtR3dhKYUP42tc3frLgJFprF5n8Y79vbFr4c43S_g4kNF/s2190/rykers%20new%20quilt.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1140" data-original-width="2190" height="334" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjp3C-P4NVadnJgLJVbAvYAMaGHIaB_Vf91BWm7SAoPPQIYt2zy39h_nzw89oeZ9j0IkqRMIqjMHa_Vq0BJavFzQ3HhXURziZtT8k80aYYRNjZ_mL9DrUQJAGJx6wrOnJMG1Ar0_EbI2rkQtR3dhKYUP42tc3frLgJFprF5n8Y79vbFr4c43S_g4kNF/w640-h334/rykers%20new%20quilt.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><p>Lots more to show you but for now I'll put up sign ons as I know we're all chomping at the bit to begin!

I’ll be going to the hall in a town about half an hour away tonight to set up the hall and will be there again at 6.30 in the morning ready to start at 8am! No. Rest for the wicked, they say!

We had been pretty much isolated from Covid up until a couple of weeks ago and now we have 200 cases with 2 hospitalised and 1 in ICU. Doesn't sound like much in comparison to where some of you live, but in a small town of about 15000 people where we have been untouched up until now, this is massive (and, I won't deny, just a bit scary!).</p><p>More changes for me too...I've left my job due to ongoing health issues and have been in a bit of a slump, something that I'd never even considered would be part and parcel with my resignation. After a week and a half at home, I'm starting to find my feet again and I've managed to work on a couple of projects, finishing one of my<a href="https://kittyrosecottage.com/collections/little-box-of-creativity" target="_blank"> Little Box of Creativity kits from Kitty Rose Cottage</a> and I'm currently working on finishing my <a href="https://feefeeandme.com/collections/block-of-the-month" target="_blank">Around the Garden quilt</a> by Fee Fee and Me.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhENC_nhtaUrK9IAWy7ppR5duX11cPXjtjG275z-RcA3lIp0Fl828tXJdsTbcfH_daspuL4NVqZA95hJxVfALp62QuZXmpBbLW0dZ69YPt1kkPDoqbHbyDciw1b7Kwtc_evpO3Ntv7d-s3Xptf8V7cZUAQjocmPHDXAtW5AVNBP6VCkslouwevC6lMr=s1410" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1117" data-original-width="1410" height="508" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhENC_nhtaUrK9IAWy7ppR5duX11cPXjtjG275z-RcA3lIp0Fl828tXJdsTbcfH_daspuL4NVqZA95hJxVfALp62QuZXmpBbLW0dZ69YPt1kkPDoqbHbyDciw1b7Kwtc_evpO3Ntv7d-s3Xptf8V7cZUAQjocmPHDXAtW5AVNBP6VCkslouwevC6lMr=w640-h508" width="640" /></a></div><p>Sometimes, just the peaceful calm of stitching at home with friends online takes the pressure of the outside world off your shoulders, so FNSI is such a blessing for me and I hope, for you too.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEho9LiVf97Snpux3DO7q9WFbobMxS3lTdppEGcSEnkhofGrx99MRr94DWY1zi1CPHF4dA69_IU3byjevClq1HGVD1ppXtRbIjDr1lc15Unp-uw9FXGlOVgYHHOKi0gT7g5gc5P4o7BqJl6qCCEUvFkF_45K__s-5WNtZfytt2RFk5R8CDdRtqiIqIhm=s160" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="160" data-original-width="159" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEho9LiVf97Snpux3DO7q9WFbobMxS3lTdppEGcSEnkhofGrx99MRr94DWY1zi1CPHF4dA69_IU3byjevClq1HGVD1ppXtRbIjDr1lc15Unp-uw9FXGlOVgYHHOKi0gT7g5gc5P4o7BqJl6qCCEUvFkF_45K__s-5WNtZfytt2RFk5R8CDdRtqiIqIhm=w318-h320" width="318" /></a></div><p>Join with us this Friday night for our first Friday Night Sew In for the year.

I'm particularly proud of the baby quilt I finished even though nothing else came close to being finished; we were so fortunate up here in North Queensland with little effects of the sinister disease which locked up the rest of the world. I managed to still go to work and function reasonably normally despite what was going on around us, but that meant my stitching time was less than I'd have liked but in the scheme of things....I know I'm truly blessed. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhPIo4Hoe7VmoRWg_TOx99G7qodVdua6sq33jFLljyeosQuQZUHWbO2YzIChOknmfztFKgi9dI50iXq4sOdZWc4QWJTgcf381aCrmPh2N4ic1FpQmcw0JzWMRlgGBGeUm-y9y5ElfnrbF9oIavhQYQsVkoKZosePxDInFyro-6q_Z6SZRUKGJ0fR-Ue=s320" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="38" data-original-width="320" height="38" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhPIo4Hoe7VmoRWg_TOx99G7qodVdua6sq33jFLljyeosQuQZUHWbO2YzIChOknmfztFKgi9dI50iXq4sOdZWc4QWJTgcf381aCrmPh2N4ic1FpQmcw0JzWMRlgGBGeUm-y9y5ElfnrbF9oIavhQYQsVkoKZosePxDInFyro-6q_Z6SZRUKGJ0fR-Ue" width="320" /></a></div><p>Enormous thanks must be given to our wonderful sponsor this year - Kitty Rose Cottage!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhU0_cs3aaxDgn5GN3l-RlASH54rucCodlWYFaK0J0vS7wfJNgI7BZEJQaYx20MjzEzD581zk51xUYntGajAkpyDeTS0J-5XjiFLH00QaWQvjtdYIo-xY5NilG1DUAfV8VUwaA63mHzOPp5FFdgJOSCYMncR3vtOzeNE3XHbvW6EUjeg_fv5MPgrJCD=s4200" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2700" data-original-width="4200" height="412" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhU0_cs3aaxDgn5GN3l-RlASH54rucCodlWYFaK0J0vS7wfJNgI7BZEJQaYx20MjzEzD581zk51xUYntGajAkpyDeTS0J-5XjiFLH00QaWQvjtdYIo-xY5NilG1DUAfV8VUwaA63mHzOPp5FFdgJOSCYMncR3vtOzeNE3XHbvW6EUjeg_fv5MPgrJCD=w640-h412" width="640" /></a></div><p>Dawn has been a great friend of mine since my blog's birth in 2009 and our friendship has grown exponentially in that time and I'd be lost without her.
