Blue squares

Wow...last day off winter already! The year has gone too fast, but bring on spring I love jeans and t.shirt weather. This is my latest quilt that I finished the other week. My first queen size quilt I've ever made from start to finish. I mean the whole deal, quilt top, wadding, backing, binding and the quilting part. My hand stitching flower one is talking so long i thought I'd whip one up on the sewing machine that I can enjoy while I probably take another year to finish the other one. For a piece of fabric to make it's way into this quilt it just had to have some kind of blue in it, it's nearly all vintage fabric and some of the boys old t.shirts.

A little change

Gee it's been a while....

So I finally got a bike! After about a year of searching ebay for a nice vintage bike that goes good, I got a new one after all. You wouldn't believe it but a nice vintage bike is worth at least four times the amount of a new one. I saw this display bike reduced for the biggest bargain, so I grabbed it and wheeled it straight up to the counter. And it's even the colour I wanted.

Libby and I have been cruising around town, she loves it on the back in the baby bike seat. It brings me back to being a teenager, oh the memories of having no license.

And I found the basket at the oppshop, just have to work out how to attatch it.
iSplash is great fun.

What I'm reading...Since reading the first chapter I was so inspired, I've cleaned out all our wardrobes and have filled loads of garbage bags full of stuff to get rid of. It feels good.

Material and a computer

My material now has a new home, the old one was getting abit small. 98% of it is all from the oppshop. Have you ever heard that saying ' the one who dies with the most material is the winner'? Well I think I would be in the running.

And we got a new computer, gotta love tax time. So we are now Mac people. Now I just have to learn how to use the thing. Maybe I'll learn how to do video editing, so I could finally put our wedding onto dvd to watch. It's only been 6 years. Oh that was the greatest day.

Hope your having a great week.
