A Pair of Rosy Posies...

thanks for all your lovely comments...

i love receiving them and reading them through

they make me feel warm and fuzzy

and well loved!

there are a few people left on my list of flood affected people in theodore

to make cushions for.

i'm just hoping they will brighten up the dongers

{a queensland word for a rectangular caravan!}

the government is building ten of these by the 25th march

so i have just a few more to make for the people moving into these.

this pair of 'rosy posy' cushions

were sewn on monday...

yellow flower sugar by lecien...

need i say more!

i decided to just make little selvedge tags for these ones..just for fun!



a few pink polka dots on the back of one...

all yellow with yellow buttons on the back of this one.

today i finished another yellow cushion...botany.

it's for a bloke..

i'll show you tomorrow,

i've decided the fellas can have just one big cushion

to put on their favourite armchair!

the girls all get two smaller ones..

i hope that's not discrimination..just a bit of common sense.

no rosy posies for the men either!

it's late so i'm off to bed...

i hope to see you all earlier tomorrow...

sleep well!

Friday Freedom...Finally!

hi!

...finally.

it feels like i have been submerged for a week.

last saturday i began to collate some survey figures

and late yesterday afternoon after spending days typing

and 75 pages having been printed...

i've emerged.

i delivered the goods this morning

and walked out relieved!

it's my brother's birthday next week...

but he's coming up from brisbane

tomorrow to spend the day with us.

he loves caravanning,

and says caravan parks are the best places to socialise ever,

 so...

i found this great fabric online

and it came last week...

check out the little orange kombie's...

those retro silver caravans....

and tiny green canvas tents...

so cool!

no prizes for guessing what this sister is making!

thought a cushion would look great in his van...

or on his bed.

i made a couple of local phone calls today

regarding distributing our cushions

and have met some lovely people

and there are some ideas in the pipeline!

have a great weekend...

camping anyone?

or caravanning?

...maybe some sewing!
