Ends and Beginnings

I've had a bit of a blogging break over the holidays, from the end of 2012 to almost the beginning of February 2013, but here's a few photo collages so you know I haven't been idle :).

 Top left to bottom right: One of the hens decided to take time out from laying eggs to raise a family; DD13 and Whisky bringing home a Christmas tree; Dog on the tuckerbox - Gundagai; seems to be a lot of ways to go to Junee :) ; Only in Oz could you post your letters AND grab a beer at the same time!; Our old house in Junee being restored by the current owners.

A spot of ten pin bowling at the new centre in Wagga Wagga after Christmas. DS on the left and eldest DD on the right. Notice the absence of any photographs of me, lol?

Top left to bottom right: Now that's a mouse you can get your teeth into!; Here comes the rain again...; An unusual garden visitor; Just lazing around listening to music while it's raining outside; Another use for a wheelbarrow when the temp reaches 41C; My first soaps on ropes :D ; Granny square dishcloth.

Thanks for visiting! I really am going to try to post more often this year ;P!

Cheers,

Stitch 'n' Scrap

Eek, I'm a slack blogger as it's been 4 weeks exactly since my last post! I still haven't taken photos of the potholders but with school hols, sickness and absolutely awful lighting because of inclement weather I didn't get around to it. Have to add it to my projects for today along with some sewing projects that need doing.
After fruitless efforts to start a scrapping blog I've decided to just use this one for both sewing and scrapping. There's also the personal and internet times that cause difficulty with blog keeping so I think less is best! Anyway as I occasionally use stitching on my papercrafts it still fits in with the blogname :P.
In keeping with it's new purpose I've posted a pic of the latest layout I've created. The main title are the initials of the school and the pic is of my eldest daughter, layout is done in school colours. Method - layered papers, chipboard flower, saying and title, button, foam mounting tape under sub title. Sorry about quality but it was taken under indoor lighting. TFL :).
