SHOPPING BAGS



I have bought the $1 Woolies or K Mart shopping bags and made them into good strong bags for carrying small sewing machines, sewing gear, and fabric, plus the usually shopping, gym gear.

I just put a contrasting fabric in the middle of the handles, which I just sew in a square, very easy and you have a strong bag. I sew the fabric on both sides, for good colour.

Have fun.

Humbug Bags


Our end of year dinner at Joy's Craft Kats in Kalgoorlie, was last wednesday nite. I did a workshop on Humbug bags, (humbug because of the lollies that look like it). We had fun and it was nice easy workshop and everone finished there bag as well as ate all the xmas goodies. The nite was a great success, and we should have walked home, so we could exercise all the food away.

Brekky at Nanas


Three of my grandsons visited last week-end and we did jam on toast on the back veranda. Yummy strawberry jam that nana made. Then off to play with the water pistols.

Waiting waiting waiting

Still waiting for my inchy challenge and my autumn challenge to arrive!!!!!!

Having fun with Michael


Today Michael and I decided to make some cakes,so we made some insect cupcakes, with some flowers for them to hide in. Michael ate most of them, so we only have these ones left.

Our New Off Roader




Dennis and I decided we needed an Off Roader Caravan, so we traded last month and this is our new Van. Made to order, big fridge and freezer to fill with seafood we catch, muddy's and snapper from up north. Nice comfy queen bed, for reading and nana napping. Nice big kitchen for my kitchen bitch ( Dennis). So now we can go anywhere in Australia, we can get up close and friendly with the croc's up the north end also. We will probably head off next year in March.
