The weekend is all but over so what have I been up to?....
Saturday morning - it was time to catch up with a friend at a local cafe - around the corner and down the street a little way.....
beautiful morning with the sun out....
Though I spent both afternoons at our local theatre stage managing their latest production I did manage to fit in some sewing time and...... have finished the June blocks for Nature's Journey!!! and it's not quite half way through the month!
The squares have been cut ready to start on the centre block.........
and even managed to start a small project - found a charm pack amongst my stash - not sure what it was bought for but decided the dining table needed a runner...
all this creativity of course led to ironing!!
Will probably hand quilt the runner so will be back soon - hopefully - with something completely finished for the month! ... and further progress on my NJ quilt.
Hope you all managed to fit in some creative time over the weekend!
Happy Stitching

June Long Weekend!
After a week of rather cold weather - with everyone vying for a spot in front of the heater!.....
...and more theatre rehearsals after work.......
......the June long weekend (in NSW) had arrived bringing with it slightly warmer temperatures.....even moved my sewing area to the outdoors for a while to make the most of the rather mild winter weather....
.....time was spent reading....
....the garden also had some attention - but no photos as all I did was pull out plants that weren't quite in the right place and will need replacing - I think it will be a work in progress for some time!!
Sunday arrived and I thought I'd better get some grocery shopping done so headed off to the local shopping centre - came home with not just the groceries but an outfit for a wedding I'm off to at the end of June... AND a sore throat accompanied by that not so good feeling :( ..... a hit of tonic and an early night was in store.
Decided Monday was a day to take it easy - not that it needed a lot of thought ....so... more stitching and my June blocks are nearly finished!!
Some crocheting during the evenings....
...some knitting - with a little help (!)- filled out a lovely relaxing weekend :)
Hope everyone else had an enjoyable weekend......till next time....
