Buon
giorno to you all! We are enjoying a lovely long weekend here in my part of the
world and it is the start of the school holidays. I have been up to mischief
again, how unlike me! Sometime ago I made a replica doll of our local high
school Principal (who has a fantastic sense of humour and we love to terrorize
him), now I have made a new jacket for the “John” doll. Many thanks to his
lovely wife Jane for supplying the material (lol) and to Marilyn for handing me
the parcel with the material in it!!! Do you love his new coat?
The wool dangling down is from where we tried to hang the doll once!!! oops!
How cute is he in his jacket?
I
am really looking forward to plodding around the garden these holidays, here’s
some super fab pics of the garden.....
Geraldton wax
Geraniums & stock
During
the week I have found time for more knitting too... If you are interested in
making any of these patterns I have linked them in previous posts, so you can
go back and get the patterns from there. Some of the patterns are done in 8 ply
and 3 or 4 ply.
See where one of my tea towels from Rome ended up....I can't bring myself to use it, just admire it and remember.
I watched the Dockers and Hawks footy match
yesterday and so sad for the Dockers that they didn’t win, maybe next year
guys. I’m off to visit some favourite blogs of mine now, so I do hope you enjoy
your weekend.
Cheers,
Anita.

Haha, your poor principal! He must feel as if you're all ganging up on him, what with his wife sending fabric in too. He looks fabulous, and such great fun too
Hi Anita, how funny is your doll... nowdont go sticking pins in him!!!! lovely flowers... I do love the Geralton Wax but they don't like my soil so I have lost them.... thanks for the lasagna link... I will try it next time...

Haha, your headteacher is so funny!
I love the doll. A great coat for him. The Geraldton wax flowers are so pretty and the little jackets are lovely. You have been busy.

Good to know there are still some principals out there with a sense of humour. Great fabric for his new jacket.
Pretty little things you have knitted up there.
Plenty of pretty flowers in your garden.
Enjoy the rain.
Hello Anita - gosh you have been busy - your dolls & knitting are just gorgeous. Yes I had forgotten it was end of term again here too. Those are lovely photos of your garden - spring is such a nice time when things come to life. Happy week Anita - Julie x0x
Happy Holidays! Looks like you are off to a good start with a little bit of mischief!
Enjoy your time in the garden.
Those are lovely little jackets.
yes you are wicked..but that just makes you more loveable.....love the garden pics..knitting is a usual superb...cheers Vickie
We are all Hawks supporters so it was a great day for us but I did feel sorry for Matthew Pavlich such a great player and fantastic career, maybe next year. Love your principal I'd love to see what ours would think if I made a lookalike of him!!

My brother was very pleased with the AFL result! Your John doll is very amusing, love the coat. The Geraldton Wax is so pretty; we can't grown them in our heavy clay soil. Love lasagne but have only ever made it once -- way too much messing about for me!
