The ever flowing river
reminds us that
life is eternal.
How great are my holidays? They are so great and they’ve been really productive. We’ve had time to kick back and unwind, spend time with each other, catch up with friends and plenty of creative time. Grab yourself a lovely hot cuppa and join me while I show you what I’ve been up to....

Completely let myself become addicted to these granny squares...



Another cushion in the making.
 I will be selling this one at the tourist centre. A little bit of amusement here, but I can see why these are selling well, I’m totally in love with them and the colours that I’ve chosen simply go together. I’ve had a couple of young girls eye them off. Lol

A sweet top down baby jacket ready to go to a good home. The colours are delicious and it is as soft as the clouds to touch. 


I would love to share the pattern with you but I can’t remember where on the net I got the pattern from.
A mug rug made with glorious bright 100% cotton fabric. This is the last piece I had so a smaller project was needed to use it up.....

So cute and handy
A little carry bag to go with it, not finished yet. I’m still working on this project....

 The bag measures about 9in x 12in and has soft wadding inside. It would make a good travel bag to pop those small things inside.

I’m still chipping away at some other bits but I want to get further along with those projects before I post them. Just on the flip side of my happiness is the other side L....
This time last year, we were travelling around Italy and I miss it. I’m having a quiet little sook sook here, but I’m determined to get back there in the near future.

Beauty in Rome

Checking our maps before going for the walking tour in Pompeii
Jetfoil ride around the island of Capri.


I reckon if I go back to my sewing shed I will start to be all happy again!! Lol J

Cheers, Anita.

Your posts are always so colourful and fun - I love those granny squares - the colours are wonderful! I had a granny square bedspread when I was a kid in the early 70's - it was the orange and brown that was so prevalent back then. Yours is MUCH nicer, LOL!

Gorgeous fabrics in the bag and mug rug, too.
Looks like you have played with a bit of everything!
