As the poster says...First cab off the rank for 2014 for Bay Theatre Players

Backdrop was a scene as close as possible from Richelieu where Maureen spends part of the year with Robert

And here I am with my dashing Frenchman Peasant Robert

With my Fellow Villager Eleanor

Edith and Yvette in the Green Room

I thoroughly enjoyed my electronic cigarette and had pics taken with it LOL

I'm not really a Drama Queen......at the after party

Set pulled down and ready for the next show Annie

Our FABULOUS cast

and this is what Maureen gave us all!!!

Thank you so much Maureen!!!

It was such a pleasure to be a part of this production

I normally don't do comedy and just stick with musicals and play an extra and partake in the Chorus

but when asked if I would like to sit in a French Cafe as a Barfly how could I resist!!!

See, I'm not really a Drama Queen LOL!!!

Now it's some R & R at home while I deal with some health issues and Mr Armchair helps with Jo Jo's care!!!

And now I go like a Phantom into zee night!

~OPAM (One Project A Month)...October~

Good Morning on this beautiful Sunday!!!

I have a couple of little items for OPAM here

We were at Bargain Box Fabrics one Saturday morning when JoJo spotted some Christmas Fat 1/4's and ribbon and of course she had to have them

We came home and made up 2 little bags and she was absolutely thrilled with them

And another little finish is this gorgeous Travel Wallet worked with linen

Pattern by Anni Downs of Hatched and Patched from her Some Kind of Wonderful book

The inside......a place for a pen and 2 large pockets and 2 smaller ones

perfect for tickets......notebook etc

Magnetic clips from Sarah's Patchworks Plus

and the back of the wallet

I think this will come in very handy

especially as JoJo and I are off to see The Wiggles farewell concert in December and they will be the first tickets to go in there

Thank you so much for hosting OPAM Peg and Kris!!!

I've barely got a lot of time at the moment for much sewing at all due to being in Pirates of Penzance this month

4 shows over the last 2 weekends and next weekend plus a mid week show

I am so loving being part of this wonderful cast with The Bay Theatre Players

On Friday night I was told by Jeremy who plays Frederic that I can sing and hold a tune

WOW WOW WOW this is huge for me seeing I wasn't even going to be in this production at all and I don't normally sing

Now I better hoof it as I've got to get in to the theatre early to sell programmes today

so from me it's TARANTARA TARANTARA TARANTARA

~Update~Canberra Show...a gift, Pirates and Halloween~

A little post here that I've been meaning to do for a while now

I've actually got a few that I would like to get in this year so I'll start with the Canberra Show that we went to back in February

Click here for news of the Show for 2013

I couldn't resist the above air brushed tattoo of a Faery

there was even a Faery Quilt on display

It was an extremely hot day

this is at about 9am in the morning heading down to the Ferris Wheel

nearly there....

JoJo loving every second of the ride

View over to Black Mountain Tower with the mountains in the background

Having a little fun with getting the balls into various number slots

Great for her as she aims for certain numbers

(I love these too)

An interesting little hut here

We imagined this had water in it

if it had of we would've jumped into it I'm sure!!!

We stayed the night at our Daughter Jacqueline's

Happy Birthday Mr Armchair on this very hot evening!!!!

A little fruit platter for breakfast

And here's little GD Lidija in the car with her dolly!!!

Jacqueline quickly picked a rose for us as were leaving to come back home 

A surprise gift in the mail from my dear friend Susie over in Western Australia

All wrapped in gold (she knows me too well)

....a cross stitch design book and a Guest Book

The verse on the cover says

'Our happiest days are found in the joy we share with those we love

These are the cherished moments of life'

~Adele Basheer'

and a postcard from Monkey Mia

Thank you so much dear Susie...I love the books and I will get over to see you one day xoxoxo

Now over to Pirates of Penzance currently playing at The Bay Theatre

Here are 3 of the gorgeous daughters of the Major General played by Tatjana, Madie and Jenna

Don't know whom I'm after in this pose ha ha!!!!!

The play is doing really well

On Sunday the Moruya Hospital Auxiliary wanted the cast to autograph a copy of the programme and there have been a couple of requests by some groups in town for our appearance.......how cool is that

Not much happening with needle and thread here just a bit here and there but I will have something to show for OPAM (One Project a Month) for October

And in time for Halloween tomorrow here is little Lidija being a 'scary witch'...
