Wednesday Flowers and Half Blog Anniversary

So much has happened since I started blogging 6 months ago. I was just recovering from a hip replacement. Blogging started as a way to keep in touch with a couple of friends and now. I have a wonderful group of friends through out the world.

Who would have thought.

Wednesday is flower day . This week I began working on some buds to fill in between my beautiful blooms.Blog Half Anniversary

What I hear you ask? I decided it was time for a give away and what better reason than a half Blog Birthday Right?

I purchased a copy of this Simple Pleasures by Anni Downs at the Sydney quilt show in June. I liked it so much I bought a second copy as a give away for one of you my sisters in quilting. To enter just leave a comment. I will announce the winner next week on my One Flower post.



Oh I forgot to mention I used to live in Bathurst where Anni has her shop Hatched and Patched. She was kind enough to sign this little book.





Enjoy your week and don't forget to enter or send your friends over for a visit


Hip Hip Hooray now blow out the candles and make a wish Terry

That's amazing fabric Terry, it looks wonderful. Six months goes so quickly doesn't it? Congrats and hope the hip is doing well, I'm over the three year mark now and I've never looked back, I still marvel that I can walk without pain and I can actually run now....!!!!
