Sold!!

I sold this...

How exciting :) The client also wants me to do more work for her, so I am feeling pretty good right now.
We also went here on the holidays....

The kids had a great time and loved every minute of it. We went on the scooby Doo ride and wow, I am such a wimp!! It was soooo scary :) I closed my eyes when I saw this whole section of track so high above the ground. Two of the kids  screamed and cried too and kept saying I want to get off over and over. :) So I didn't attempt the superman ride :)
This was them before they knew how scared they would be:)

 This was a very fun ride, you went backwards in this and the drop was pretty cool. We got wet though

 So we went in here, it really worked

 Her rear end was pretty wet. Mine stayed wet the whole day :) Nice.

 Good ride :)

 The stunt drive show was very very cool. We all loved it.

 We could feel the intense heat from this and it really surprised us that we could feel it from so from so far away.

 Kids version of the giant drop :)

Now they go back to school and I get a clean house back for a few hours. And rest. I am so tired.

I own a shop :)

I opened up a shop :) an Etsy shop :) it is the equivalent of ebay, but for crafters. Most of the items listed are handmade, so right for me. Feel free to have a look and purchase if you choose :) You can 'favourite' my shop to support me too. Much cheaper than purchasing :) I have only just started to add quilts, so in the next few days there will be many more added. Top right of this blog there is a link that will take you there.

School holidays have been quite all right this time round. I have found I am even enjoying it!!!! Might make mother of the year yet.
I finished the black quilt, have a look

Entered

I have entered two quilts into the QLD Quilters Competition for this year, these two...

I took a better photo than this wrinkly one :)

 And this one had better lighting. So now I hand the quilts in at the start of October and just wait to hear if I have won anything. I have put them in two different categories, night sky is in art and the tree is in pictorial. $5oo for 1st prize and $200 for 2nd and $100 for 3rd. Not bad prize money really. Of course I am hoping to win both :) dreaming is what keeps us going isn't it??

Here's some work on this one I love it and I love the abstract nature to this one

 I have been doing some family history work and found a family that I have been searching for for 15 years!!! It is sooooo exciting.
Well off to look at houses to buy :)
