Finished this recently. I copied the colours from a Charlotte Petterson jumper Sarah sent me a piccie of.

 Finally finished this mosaicing, quite a tricky business.

 Double Delight.

 Pat Austin.

 All these Fuji apples off one tree. There are a few bad apple in there which I must give to the chooks.

What I've been reading lately. I adore Kate Llewellyn.

 Also love Marina.

But I really really really love Anne Tyler and never want her books to end.

New chookies and garden.

 Found out recently that our staircase IS a ship's staircase like we always thought. Hence the extreme steepness.

 My dear sweet new 'Quamby' chooks who arrived on the plane last night. Very sweet and friendly and quiet. Yet to be named individually.

 Laundry wall.

 New water iris. Sounds so lovely in the catalogue. Watch this space.

 Corners of my garden.

 Unfortunately the wretched little birds had discovered my Lady In the Snow apple beside this one and ravished it. I had been saving them on the tree to keep them longer. They are in a possum proof enclosure but not tiny bird proof.

Inside and out.

 Decided to only go as far as a cushion for my rocking chair with this.

 From Loop in London, so exotic for me, so far away.....

 Have big plans for this. A king sized quilt, will my hands last the distance?

 My garden is struggling, we seem to have gone back to drought mode.

 Birdy love.

 More birdy love.

 Intrepid little cyclamen.

Our garlic crop, last of.

Of late.

 This is Cheeky.  Etching by Sarah Gabriel, I love him.

 Old stove.

 Furneaux Islands.

 New stove undergoing inspection by Olive.
