Yep... really paid for it too:
After much thought and consideration I have made the difficult decision to have the latest Baby Quilt professionally quilted. It has taken such a lot of effort, and hours and hours of work to make the top and backing. I don't want to stuff it up by not getting it quilted properly.
So I shall ring the quilter today sometime and get it over to her.
Hopefully she can get it done by Christmas! She is always so busy, I still don't have Emily's quilt back from her! *sigh*
Here's a few new photos of the grandbabies in Australia:
Right, enough photos!
I've got Hospice Shop today... so I am off to get lunches made, beds made, bla bla bla.
ONWARD...
I arrived home to the most divine smell:
Bex and I went over and visited Lacy and Keera for lunch. We all had a McDonald's burger. I tried the new Lamb burger. Couldn't eat it all, it was HUGE.
Now home again and contemplating doing some sewing.
End of Day: well I've not done any more sewing yet. Had a quiet afternoon with Bex then got dinner for the family.
nite nite.
Oh Steve I'm a googles girl and I look goofy as when cutting onions But hey it works!!! HUGE -4 Frost here crisp brisk and A FRESH wake me up!
ReplyDeleteI will do absolutely anything to get out of cutting onions. I feel his pain.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos of the babes in Aus. Love the way Sienna is checking out her brother.
Have a great day at Hospice!!!
Such cute kids! Even the big "kid" who cries over onions! :)
ReplyDeleteFor goodness sake... I've said it before but will say it again. If you keep your onions in the vege bin in the fridge then they don't sting your eyes when you chop them. I never, ever get stinging eyes... (except when I use them at room temperature). Try it, it works.
ReplyDeleteAWWWW!! Bodhi is soo cute. I'm afraid Steve is going to cut himself b/c he can't see crying over the onions. :/
ReplyDeleteA good trick to chopping onions is if you have astainless steel sink, to rub your hands and the onion on the stainless....no tears!! Also rinse after each cut and swipe on the side of the sink. ...debbie
ReplyDeleteI think Steve just wanted an excuse for a good cry.
ReplyDeleteI have found that by keeping my onions in the refrigerator there is very little tears if any.
ReplyDeleteYeap, must agree with the onions in the fridge! Love the photos of Steve on the floor! And your Aussie grandbabies are so gorgeous!
