Christmas Part Two
Yesterday we visited my Brother and Sister in law who live by the coast. My Mum is also staying so got to visit her also. My little Brother is a wonderful cook and he spoilt us and prepared lunch.....delicious curried prawns and rice.....so tasty!
My niece was also visting.
She lives in NSW so it was lovely to catch up and for me to hand over in person a quilt I had made for her. This girl has a beautiful heart and she loved her quilt. That's little Honey trying to get in on the act and wondering what all the excitement was about!
It was made up of 2 years worth of Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks and whilst I was assembling it I knew it was meant for her.
It was beautifully quilted by my friend FIONA of Bubz Rugz
It was a day of surprise gifts. My Brother also handcrafts cigar box guitars. My Hubby had admired his work so much. So the other surprise of the day was my Brother had made him his very own.....
I think you can see by the grin on his dial just how much it meant to him....He was absolutely rapt! I foresee a whole lot of twanging happening around here!
Yours truly and my Sister in law.....
We finished our day with a lovely beach walk.....soft cool breeze, sand between my toes, the smell and sound of the ocean.....Devine! Thanks family xxx
Rest day today....time for a cuppa and a rum ball or two.
