Another Finish

Catching up now with some unfinished jobs.
Whoa its not long to christmas & I haven't even started on 
preparations......gotta get it together real soon!!!!
I did however manage to finish this quilt 
before my Australia trip.


Its been a long trip with this I'm delighted to have it done.
Well pleased with the dotty backing & green binding, has worked out ok!


Warm & cozy just in time for winter

A satisfied smile....what more could i ask for.

Back soon 
Lots of love Karen x

Hi There

I've been away from my blog again for a few weeks
for good reason though.
For the second time this year I traveled to 
Perth in Australia to spend precious time with my dad.
He was diagnosed with motor neurons disease a year 
ago & really doesn't have very much time left.
Every minute I got with him was a blessing.
 
For the first time in 21 years we were all 
together in one place as a family
It was a amazing to be able to take this picture
with them


Thats me there on the right with my sweet sister Cindy just behind me.
Two brothers Gary & Mark behind us, my lovely dad with third 
brother Andrew & his gorgeous wife Layle, then my niece Jody, mom &
 sister Michelle next to her.
Made our dad so happy to have us all together
I guess we really need to treasure what we have
& I'll treasure this.

Hope to be back soon with some pieces to share
Have missed all your lovely blogs yet again
See you soon
