I started this craft morning about 5 years ago for the local women. Over the years we have learnt many things, but the last 12 mths we have just been bringing what ever we are working on.

Today though I organized some one to come and teach us about stack and whack quilts.
Below is the one my Mum just made me for my birthday(I am so spoilt)
This sounds like a fun quilt to make.

Lots of chatting and yummy food and more coffee of course, then it was time to pack up and back home.

    I am sitting here with goose bumps and giggling at your day.

    It is such a rarity and a pleasure to be able to know that someone else is going through exactly the same sort of day I am !!!

    daisyboy4 starts prep next year although daisyboy7 went to full time preschool so we have some inkling - but it is all going to be so serious isn't it??

    Towels out in the morning in in the afternoon - the bus run - lunches.

    Bless you it is so so nice to know that I as I go through my days you are going through them with me.

    I may even do one of those posts myself in the future!!

    Our daisies are 21,20,17,13,12(at the end of the month - sleep over 6 boys! - that will be worth a post),7 and 4. 6 boys and one girl.
