We went out to visit my folks at Moura as they have friends up from Broken Hill. So it was nice to catch up with them. </div><br /><div>Over the past week we have had huge rain fall. In some parts they had minor flooding as they received so much rain in such a short space of time.On the way out to Moura we managed to miss most of the storms and massive rain clouds. We could see the rain in the distance it was raining so hard in some places. Anyway we were driving along and watching a storm/cloud form and it was just amazing watching it go really black and then it just errupted. It was hard to photograph but managed to get it. </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuhdlXNoqXXKd6YgyZSp5QK3K-B4oPqWN_b6tem5HSasM9OhFwtMYZRbhempt1g0LPUCGyGO7kOFy2YnWE9w6dGQ_5Ddk7lnurrpdIclBnA4uNAtG2KntlxtztMv3x6J1qZd_du0mYHhfZ/s1600-h/raincloud.jpg"></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNjQG_7O5Pv0O-7Ja-PsZeGdYebiAdjkggYEKFVtYLozpQLw-NcFMJo3oDCmHzDlCKyh41g-73yg62fN-EQg0kenzD82rVothTGo9T4nGv-EFkYV0cuYziajtrG8VToyKQGscVgurKOlQx/s1600-h/raincloud.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295569407085875042" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 88px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNjQG_7O5Pv0O-7Ja-PsZeGdYebiAdjkggYEKFVtYLozpQLw-NcFMJo3oDCmHzDlCKyh41g-73yg62fN-EQg0kenzD82rVothTGo9T4nGv-EFkYV0cuYziajtrG8VToyKQGscVgurKOlQx/s200/raincloud.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Not sure if this photo really did it justice.

Dry Weather Road Only.<br /><br /><br /><div>We had a lovely night in Moura catching up with mum and dad as well as the Dungys. They are dads friends from the Army days. They had lost contact many many years ago. However as a part of dads surprise 60th a few years ago I tracked them down. </div><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><div><strong><span style="color:#663366;">SUNDAY:</span></strong></div><br /><div>After double checking that the boys stuff was all ready for them to go back to school I ventured into yep you guessed it MY SEWING ROOM. I started fiddling around with a quilt that I partly made and had started quilting at retreat last year. It is another one of Jan Phillips's workshops. See the link on the side bar for Jans website. This one is called Freedom. Its all about free cutting using just the rotary cutter. NO RULERS! No I wasnt drunk when I made it.... the seems are all wavey and crooked Thats why its called freedom! I decided not to square up the quilt but add to its style by leaving the edges wavey. Jan also showed us how to do her freedom quilting that she does. I just couldnt get the hang of it. It required me to go slow. Ever known me to go slow? So I decided to just use the free motion quilt foot and basically just pretended I was doodling on paper.</div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4WqdFHPfChN3hprarsBSGy-vQtKj1wNwznyteqhdTnGKts-98plE-modzAO8FXKSH9tSWnL2Y3MUgz-ICnkSNRtzRRqqPQVcEFFBNiX1aHsxDf3go0gYa5b0NGpGeWtOEZwj3ZYtcRsHw/s1600-h/freedom.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5295572775416786722" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4WqdFHPfChN3hprarsBSGy-vQtKj1wNwznyteqhdTnGKts-98plE-modzAO8FXKSH9tSWnL2Y3MUgz-ICnkSNRtzRRqqPQVcEFFBNiX1aHsxDf3go0gYa5b0NGpGeWtOEZwj3ZYtcRsHw/s200/freedom.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Its more a bed topper or wall hanging.

Adi if your reading this and its not your birthday day do not continue!</div><br /><br /><br /><div>Anyway one of the girls at works birthday is tomorrow and I decided to make her a new work bag. She usually brings her stuff to work in one of those green Coles or Woolworths shopping bags. So using the dimensions of one of these I have made her a bag using Purple which is her favourite colour. BUT made a little twist. I put tabs on the side of it so that when the bag is not full it can be made smaller but when she needs to pile lots of stuff into it she can make it bigger.

I have seen many new tables that I would love to own but my current table is attatched to the wall and it still works fine. I thought about cutting a hole in the table and lowering my machine but I felt that it would then be too low. I then thought about buying the table that Janome has designed for my machine. But then I would cut down too much room in my sewing nook. But I like to have my machine to the front of my table. So that didnt work either. So I designed a table top that would just sit straight ontop of my current table that was shaped to go around my machine. I took this to a cabinet making business and for $170 they made me exactly what I wanted. Loads cheaper than the tables I was looking at. So check it out............</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>BEFORE PHOTO </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih1WD-MQlwUl3i16j7KBGX9ZjB85rgYaL9UziWa5ldQAaEKktHwAOl6IdbQMfI0j69EKAzDhzSq9mTVCCivH86iru5OTMe7qmtXMopQLQ9lFcstLVwo81Ejg7zGUEetrcc_0kKGCu5Wlt2/s1600-h/sewingroom2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290173298599880322" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 150px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEih1WD-MQlwUl3i16j7KBGX9ZjB85rgYaL9UziWa5ldQAaEKktHwAOl6IdbQMfI0j69EKAzDhzSq9mTVCCivH86iru5OTMe7qmtXMopQLQ9lFcstLVwo81Ejg7zGUEetrcc_0kKGCu5Wlt2/s200/sewingroom2.jpg" border="0" /></a> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMvuvBaVtngcGOeDw-STPdHofTtg8ZK_ujgTiAfBQkaD1OItJR0MhsXqfQb9sIRsxhE3HQ8wbqknQkbPeY87-j7Yu-iksDGwQtI1L3oe6ljhSn0yYPujvo952nsZJts7LpaHpfTKqJpucS/s1600-h/newtabletop.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290173617348003202" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 188px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 160px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMvuvBaVtngcGOeDw-STPdHofTtg8ZK_ujgTiAfBQkaD1OItJR0MhsXqfQb9sIRsxhE3HQ8wbqknQkbPeY87-j7Yu-iksDGwQtI1L3oe6ljhSn0yYPujvo952nsZJts7LpaHpfTKqJpucS/s200/newtabletop.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div> </div><div>After Photo</div>KAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06580422223760041321noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156290334465858555.post-90519385550832994542009-01-11T18:40:00.012+10:002009-01-11T19:40:29.125+10:00Latest Sewing and wot not<div>Today I finished a bag I started last weekend. Its a Laptop bag. I wouldnt recommend the pattern to anyone! It was really confusing and not very thorough. I ended up just doing my own thing to get it finished.

So fingers crossed she is going to fix the mistake made by her posting department. Will keep you all informed when i get my fabric.KAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06580422223760041321noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156290334465858555.post-62461352212695000412008-06-01T08:55:00.001+10:002008-06-01T09:13:14.462+10:00Feeling ripped offWell I have learned NOT TO BUY from <a href="http://www.hotdiggitydog.com/">http://www.hotdiggitydog.com/</a>. Why do you ask? Well I ordered the following fabric :<br /><br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5206680377558207234" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivlA9kIJBWn9HyXirRrraemkYU4N7VZLGMjQuiZ8DRsDVMFqE-eDcj5-pjE3gAOQAX4fY_XdPZjHF8uvhmE9BvfokMs6MzX-vLWrxEb_3S12kFeH66NiR0-lcZmbQLcaT-mkcaX9Q-OukS/s200/107.jpg" border="0" />I also ordered some nice brown paw print on black background to go with this piece. I ordered the fabric for a friend who wants me to make one of those stable bags I make.<br />This is the fabric that arrived:<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5206680721155590930" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiiJVFxxxSagxdI20jHSbyq9D52gLLcGju-2Tjc5ipR2n9rYFgsdSE7dCT-KPheuZry2aVu1BmAsmoTbsJVrJC4-CXGAhjrjgwPpcwD9VskdgJHlkreSjD9xeJEL_mWXVUAoxmmQBYVtte4/s200/pug+fabric.jpg" border="0" />Can you see the slight difference? Its bright blue background looks nothing like the black background of the fabric I had ordered. So I contacted the store owner and she said she would send me the black background fabric at a reduced price of $12 but only when I have paid the postage to return the blue fabric! I reminded her that it was not my mistake I was sent the incorrect fabric. That seeing it was her fault I should not have to pay out more money to get what I originally ordered. Yep thats right she wants me to pay the postage to send the wrong fabric back to her then wants me to pay the postage to send the correct fabric back to me!!!!! And she wont send the correct fabric until I send the incorrect fabric back! Now because she in is Amercia and I am in Australia we arent just talking about a couple of dollars. It will cost me at least $10 to send this fabric back to her then she wants me to pay the $12 which is the cost she claims it will be to send the correct fabric back to me. Makes it a very expensive YARD of fabric!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />All I wanted was a yard of pug fabric to make this bag for my friend. Now I am $49 out of pocket with fabric I will never use and a seller who is not prepared to fix up her own mistake! I am so angry.<br />So if anyone knows where I can get some of this pug fabric on black background can you let me know. Oh dont suggest hotdiggity!!! Its a Michael Miller fabric titled pug. Oh and if your interested in some blue background pug fabric I have a yard of it as its not use to me as it does not match the other two fabrics I purchased to make the bag with!<br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgJIdBG5EYd16hVoC0ssBUoQRoQkUIplUQLlFDTUiwPrZKqzU96iUAMs6mWOdqqPKDVPqsssE_nJxOgk6ZWflDEwzaxL92dmSo134QwOOOkyhDURWSciNk7Vm4uiZxcjCtrevjSx3uW-6db/s1600-h/107.jpg"></a></p>KAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06580422223760041321noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156290334465858555.post-16937874837609518752008-04-11T22:23:00.007+10:002008-04-11T22:37:34.588+10:00MY WEEK OFF<div><div><div><div>Well today is the last day of my week off!

Since the last time I have finished two quilts! I have totally finished my 30s disappearing nine patch quilt and OMG I stippled it! First time I have ever stippled a quilt. It has turned out to be a large single bed sized quilt. I stippled it using a pretty pastel coloured verigated thread. The second quilt I finished was also another disappearing nine patch (DPN)in only two colours. I also stippled it however found it easier after someone suggested I use stippling gloves! WOW what a difference they made. Oh and it might of been because it was a only half the size of the other one. </div><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwiDdnj9hTIl2p3ShQOZo6TEJ8vWkNnhMziWDrs0V40kRlAwxMztXdLXSO2JFpiDRKqLDIe-D3m8HqggABo-LQfCHxJp_P0qYaFq8LozLFDl4Ld_rnQ6aBnbjWnnsRfmEpCfcOOEi_0qnq/s1600-h/30sdpnfinished.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184027170534179314" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwiDdnj9hTIl2p3ShQOZo6TEJ8vWkNnhMziWDrs0V40kRlAwxMztXdLXSO2JFpiDRKqLDIe-D3m8HqggABo-LQfCHxJp_P0qYaFq8LozLFDl4Ld_rnQ6aBnbjWnnsRfmEpCfcOOEi_0qnq/s320/30sdpnfinished.jpg" border="0" /></a>This one is my 30s fabrics dpn.

She is expecting her first baby in July. Went to her baby shower today and had a nice time. I got the quilt made just in time. However I did cheat I machine sewed the binding down due to lack of time and also felt it would be more durable. Its quite a funny theme considering the amount of rain we have had. The saying on the quilt is "It rained for 40 days and 40 nights!" Of course its a Noah's Ark themed quilt. I bought this quilt kit quiet sometime ago from my favourite ebay seller <a href="http://stores.ebay.com.au/Quilt-Tops-By-Octavia-and-Friends_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsQ3amesstQQtZkm">http://stores.ebay.com.au/Quilt-Tops-By-Octavia-and-Friends_W0QQssPageNameZstrkQ3amefsQ3amesstQQtZkm</a> They have the best value quilting supplies on ebay and are the best people to deal with. </div>KAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06580422223760041321noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156290334465858555.post-61868576768918332682008-02-13T21:24:00.006+10:002008-02-13T21:54:11.200+10:00RAIN RAIN RAIN GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!<div><div><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_oxDIX3y4gZepPL1198dcAh7ckdyb-pwSd8vfPoUXZ_QiaDinOj3CuVw1_SJxXUjihHvEMtfxV_InqHFVrb6zaUR9DDrG2pOibzla1W_gmt-YnUgCpagkzt_9t3EdDOT4NztXh3nNYxRq/s1600-h/Gladstone+floods+004.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166424765116237218" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_oxDIX3y4gZepPL1198dcAh7ckdyb-pwSd8vfPoUXZ_QiaDinOj3CuVw1_SJxXUjihHvEMtfxV_InqHFVrb6zaUR9DDrG2pOibzla1W_gmt-YnUgCpagkzt_9t3EdDOT4NztXh3nNYxRq/s320/Gladstone+floods+004.JPG" border="0" /></a> Here in Gladstone Central QLD it has been raining non stop for three days.

So I have unpicked and fixed up the mistake. What mistake you all ask as you couldn't see it. It was in the greens on the left hand side. I only had 3 greens and then the reds started. All the other had 4 greens then the reds. So consequently the strips on the left were one row short! SO I unpicked between the last green and the first red and added another green row in. See if you can see the difference:<br /><p><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5162670761801545986" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyB1LVcoRIbwW1cXMjhSh-PIIAHJSGEHV0LK0ZGOzcxI-TI1ct62WyO-oJl7soXjbHy3l4FIUcRrGnVPi2-M8JnzILgk9Jhsdqcu6KyE4gvqHIr9K8ewHzSpolyImCueh1onHc9L39lXSa/s320/before+and+after.jpg" border="0" /> </p><p>The fixed version is the smaller pic on the left hand side.

The US girls are probably just waking getting ready to sew and to watch the superbowl.<br /><br /><div><div><br /><div>Here are some photos I wanted to share of Gail and I making our bargellos. I had a slight hiccup with mine right at the end however think it will be easily fixed.</div></div><br /><br /><div></div><div></div><div><div>The first photo above is of Gail and myself sewing our bargellos together. Hehe you can see mine behind me hanging on Gails curtain.<br /></div><br /><div>Gail has steamed ahead of me and alread done her first border and also part of her braid border. Psssttt ssshhh you know why she is ahead of me..... she sewed until 4am this morning!
