In and Out at Lilly Pilly

What went out? A gift for Rosie
Thank-you for my kitty!


What came in? Mail of course!!

Lovely books from the Book Depository, don't you love that Teddy Bear!

....and a surpirse package from Brianna of Rolling In Fabric, that I had forgotten all about!
I won a giveaway on her blog! 4 FQ's and the cutest little kit to make a Matryoshka brooch.
Thank-you Brianna, now I need to find the perfect project for these lovely fabrics!

Happy Australia Day

G'day everone, Happy Australia Day!
This is one of my favourite Aussie Icons, The Tassie Devil. Living in Tassie I've never seen them in the wild but you can hear them. Isn't he the cutest little fellow.
I'll be kicking back a bit later with some mates, having a barbie while the kids swim in the pool.
Enjoy yourselves!
Hugs
Jo

New look

I've been mucking around with my blog today, trying to find a more appealing layout. I think I like this style, it's simple, easy to read.

It's been a big weekend here in Oz. We celebrated Australia Day on Saturday, the smell off BBQs was in the air. Everywhere I went Aussie flags were hung, everyone was wearing Ozzie hats and tattoos. We've become very patriotic. Today's a public holiday, we've been doing a bit of gardening as it's a beautiful day outside. The apricots and green gage plums are ready for picking, I just eat them straight off the trees and our apples will be ready for eating soon.
I've also been working on a project, here's a sneak peek.

I'll show you more next time.
