April Done

Well whip crackers I am done for April.... Finally caught up and enjoying stitching for stitchings sake .. not to catch up... Lets hope it stays that way...  Today is cold for April... low grey fluffy clouds and a very cold wind...... loving it... so much better than 40 degrees Celsius ......Lovely sewing day and its a weekend.....  

Bernie's cooking ribs...mmmm...spoke to my kids this morning.......cuppa with mum and dad .....all is well with the world....  Hope your day is lovely too...

Beautiful day for ANZAC commemorations yesterday and now a lovely day to be inside. I think the crowds at both dawn service (4.28am) and morning march and service at (10.00am) were the most our town has ever seen. Seems to be repeated all over Australia by all reports.  


The proof.......  Have a lovely day everyone....

What a lovely picture. And we were back to snow last week. It has warmed up somewhat this week but not nearly the spring we are used to having. Your blocks look beautiful. Nice, bright colors.
