Getting Crafty

Good Morning - or good evening, depending on where in the world you are. I thought I would share a little project I have been working on with Miss Mila. A few days ago I got out all my fabric bits and bobs, including some pre-cut quilting squares. I have very good intentions, but often they don't pan out, for obvious lazy reasons. So, I have all this lovely fabric littered around the room, and lovely Mila comes to show me a picture she had drawn, on one of the little squares. Rather than waste it, and seeing as my embroidery thread was also out and about (Miss Trinity was sewing things) I made this little cushion to keep forever. What do you think?

Crikey, two in one day?

Hello again - just thought I would give you a design update. Firstly, I went yesterday to buy the last of the fabric I need to make curtains for the apartment. I also bought blackout lining, but of a kind you have never seen before. It is the most beautiful woven quality, and could easily be used as curtains rather than just lining. And, the best part, it was only 4000 won per yard, which is less than $US4 per yard. Oh, and it also comes in 12 colours.
Anyhoo, I too some pics, so here we go. The flowers are for the lounge, and the dolls are for the girls room.
I also have a pic of our TV cabinet that I am in love with. John loves it as it holds up the TV.

May 27 - A morning on the mountain

Hello to all my faithful and very patient blog followers - all 6 of you. Sorry for the silence. Some of you will have been sent the 'Missives' from John and so will know the strange goings-on that we have been dealing with. Others won't, and you are the lucky ones.

Today we ran out of drinking water, so the three of us (P, T & M) took a trek up the mountain to the spring to collect some. It is quite fun, although schlepping the full bottles home is not so much.

I took lots of photos as it is a lovely day here - 27 degrees celcius at 11am. I will try to post them here, but am still a bit challenged by all this stuff.
