Whilst I was in the mood for circles I made a couple more for my "bright" set.
Have a lovely weekend wherever you are and in whatever way you choose to spend your time.

Circles and Blooms
Spring has sprung depite the little bit of dampness in the air around my bit of suburbia......
On Wednesday it was off across the river to the other side of town to friend Anne's home for our stitching day. Things were blooming their heads off in Anne's garden....beautiful orchids and pots of gorgeous colour.....typical blogger....could NOT resist snapping away! EXTREMELY envious of Anne's King orchid flowers!
How lovely is this touch of spring on our delicious dessert.
I was so struck by Anne's beautiful pairing of these sweet sculptures and the artwork above....I have permission to share.
Not a lot of stitching happened but I did get one lonely tag completed for Ruth's Quilt.
Lots of friendship and laughter made for a very nice day. We missed you Jacky and Lorel......hope you are having fun....safe travels to you both.
Whilst I was in the mood for circles I made a couple more for my "bright" set.
And another set waiting...
I have a few made now and have sewn a set together (right top). I am hoping to get a raffle quilt made to raise funds for my Son's new cycling adventure to raise funds for Mater Cancer Research......Smiling for Smiddy. Named for a young man who sadly passed away not having had the benefits of the amazing new treatments for Melanoma we are starting to see now......which is thanks to many ordinary Aussies doing amazing things to add to the reasearch funds. Anyway this is where I am up to so far....I chose the circles to represent all those revolutions those cycle wheels make on these journeys.
Not a lot yet but it will grow!
Have a lovely weekend wherever you are and in whatever way you choose to spend your time.
