Good Morning

Good Morning,

Well this quilter has been missing her little grandson after my visit to meet him. My beautiful daughter in law is sending me regular photos to my iPhone. She even had fantastic timing and sent me an photo after his bath on Tuesday night while I was sitting in the doctor's surgery waiting to see my doctor who was  running very late. Such a nice feeling to see him looking at me from my message. Even had a few photos of the last bit of a smile that have just melted my heart.

Jaxon after his bath
I have been making myself get in and finish already started projects. Proud to say I have finished some shop samples & working on some class samples. I have also been sneaking in some time to do my beloved stitchery's. I find my stitching soothes my soul. Do you stitch ?
I have also been working on and off on one of my designs. I have the piecing of the quilt top finished and I am now working on the applique circles that I will be adding to the top with an applique on them. If I get what I would like to get finished today I will share a peek with you.

So while I was doing this post I was sent more photos of baby Jaxon to start my day. Had to share this one to make you smile :) A cutie what do you think ??

Hope you have a wonderful day where ever you are :)

Happy Quilting

What have i been doing and Baby Jaxon

Hi Everyone,
Sorry for the delay in posts. I have just arrived back from a trip to meet my little grandson. We met up in Townsville  Queensland, a pretty coastal town with weather warmer than we are having in Adelaide.


Jaxon and his Nanny
Meeting my first grandchild was very special. He loved to just look at my face,  I felt he was looking into and stealing my heart all at the same time. I enjoyed giving him his bottle, lots of cuddles and kisses. I did a tiny spot of baby sitting while his Mum & Dad popped out for a short time. Then he decided to christen me with a dirty nappy! That was interesting to say the least. I have not changed a nappy in 22 years and these disposable nappies, I have never used. Anyway I did what had to be done, had trouble with those tab thingies, but I got it  on. Only to find out later I had put it in back to front!!! hehe Oh well at least he had a clean one on :)
Leaving my son and his wife Joey and baby Jaxon to fly home was one of the hardest things I have had to do. Broke my heart to leave them. Already looking forward to the next time I get to see them. Hopefully here in Adelaide in the new year.

So what have I been working on design wise? Not a lot of late. I was busy making a quilt for a little someone :) 
But I have two designs that I have started and hoping to start back on one this week. Would you like to take a peek ??? These are two different projects.
