Busy Bee!

It has been a crazy week to say the least. Car breaking down, things to finish for Xmas, 1st birthday invites to make, photos to be taken for Xmas cards and dresses to be bought for a function pre Xmas..........ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Things didn't quite get finished but I did finished a few major projects I replaced some clothes on a wooden wire doll family for a friend. Made a wall hanging for Jax's room, from wet felting. I returned to work on Santa who is going on our front door. Some of you girls may remember me working on him at Daylesford. He is nearly finished and I will publish his gradual creation next blog.



I also began work on my next exhibition piece for "Thou Art Mum" group. I decided to go with a theme of "a Postcard from my garden" This however may change as I go along but I am going to try using some silk in the wet felting technique which is new for me. Could be good,but could be a disaster. It's all part of the fun!







So as you can see I have been busy, busy. Did I mention while I was doing all this I was looking after my two boys!Arn't females such efficient creatures? Oh and I moved Kaya into Jax's room and have successfully orientated them into putting up with one another....they are sleeping great....touch wood!





Now that I have vented all of my creations for the week I feel absolutely exhausted! I can safely say though now the rain has come we will all sleep better, the gardens will love it and the farmers too. My veggie garden is feeling much like a baby to me, lovingly nurtured and proudly photographed. It makes me feel great to see such color and self sufficiency come from my little patch of Melbourne. It makes all the chaos drain away and help me prepare for what will be for the next week.
