I finished my autumn quilt last week while I was away with my son on holidays on my sisters property not far from Kingaroy, Australia. It has been sent and is winging it’s way overseas as I type this and hopefully will reach it’s new owner very very soon.
I’ve been very busy lately with getting everyone’s presents made for christmas and a few other projects I have going. I’ve just started making this cot quilt for my nephew Matty and his partner Foxy and I’m already in love with it and I probably wont want to give it…
I love the sight of my line so full of fat quarters. 32 fat quarters to be exact. Now I just have to decide what to do with them all. I already plan to use the autumn-coloured prints for my Fall-Inspired Mini Quilt Swap but the rest are yet to…
I could never understand why quilters had a UFO box. For non-sewers that is an Un-finished Objects box, where all the half finished projects go until the sewer feel like returning to them. I finally understood it the other night when I pulled out the last box of my quilting…
So lately I’ve been pretty preoccupied with getting back into my sewing. It’s been over 5 years since I made a quilt and for some unknown reason I had this uncontrollable urge to make a crib quilt for my nieces little baby who will be born in the coming weeks….
Before I got my Nikon and started taking ‘proper’ photos I mainly enjoyed looking at architectural shots, old majestic buildings or run down old buildings left to decay. I still enjoy looking at these photos because they invoke a feeling of despair and resentment for the allowing such beauty to…
I just wanted to share a photo of the amazing sunset I saw and took pictures of today. The colours were amazing, I haven’t seen this many colours in a sunset for awhile.
I’ve just moved my blog over from Squarespace. I loved the whole experience over at Squarespace, it was easy to build the blog, everything was was pretty much how I wanted it, except the photo gallery. I also wished there was more themes to choose from. I’ve been admiring the…
Something really terrible happened yesterday. Well actually, it happened the night before but I didn’t realise it had happened until yesterday. I lost about half of my new photos from the Nikon. I am still pissed about it, pissed at myself because I had done it, pissed because I didn’t…
Kelly from over at A Little Bit Sensitive has requested some photos from bub’s new little camera so I’m here tonight to deliver. I’ve just downloaded them from the camera and I’m quite surprised at some of the shots, there are more than a few artistic ones and they are…
This is my son. Him and I went and bought him a kids digital camera last Saturday and he hasn’t put the thing down. I’m not really impressed with the quality of the photos but I guess since it’s a toy it isn’t too bad. It’s shockproof and water resistant…
My Nikon D60 turned up today along with the bag I’d ordered off eBay so I am so excited. Not only did I get my camera but I got my my really really really long hair cut off short. I’ve been thinking about doing it for a very long time…
Sometimes I really just wish I could pack up and move to America. It’s not because I want to move away from Australia, and it’s not because I particularly want to live in America. It’s because if you don’t live in America you miss out of some really cool products…
Image Credit : thenorthface06 YES! I’ve finally bought my first dSLR camera. It’s true that it isn’t the D90 that I wanted but I told myself that I am after all just a novice, a learner photographer, and it’s better to have a D60 than nothing at all. I would…
