Raindrops

At last the heavens have opened and we here in my little corner of Australia have had a deluge.....whilst lovely for the garden and our water supply, I am hoping our  country folk don't miss out.
I now have some green grass....
When you haven't seen it for awhile it's a real treat......even have some lichen...
One of my orchids liked it so much it sent out a flower spike.
Raindrops are so pretty.....
So.....now that I have bored you with watching the grass grow lol! I shall bore you with a de-wallpapered wall....
For me this is truly exciting.....priming can begin shortly!
My beautiful group of stitching friends celebrated another special birthday this week....our friend Moira. Sadly due to illness I couldn't attend the luncheon. However I can show you the quilt we made for Moira under secret squirrel circumstances! What underhanded and clandestine meetings took place lol!
Here is the birthday girl with her quilt!
It's called "A Few of My Favourite Things" designed by yours truly.  Moira  loves purples....
So she was very happy, very surprised and had a lovely time. Happy birthday Moira xx
Dear Daughter and I had a very happy time Tuesday night.  We went to see Michael Buble` in concert and it was fabulous....such a fun night! Our selfie is very atmospheric due to the red hues of the lighting lol! Lovely to share it with my girl.
That's me caught up! I am going to hopefully join in with my cyber buddies tonight for
More rain is forecast, so a bit of stitching with rain on the roof would be very nice thank you very much!
Enjoy your weekend lovely people.
Namaste and blessings Michelle xxx

  9. Rain is certainly a blessing in your country. As long as it is not too much. Just enough to make the grass green up, it seems.

  13. It is wonderful to see the rain. And some of it has put out some fires, too. That is great. Apparently we are in for a few days of heavy rain. The garden will be happy.
    Looks like things are on the move if the wall paper is gone!!
