January 26 the day we celebrate our identity as Australians no matter where we are or where we were born.
A day of high temperatures 42C here, barbecues with family and friends as summer ends. School starts next Monday. A day at the beach if you live on the coast.
The day for me is about my first 'little Aussie" Heather born in Sydney she is a "true blue" Australian as is my 2nd daughter and grandchildren.
I made a Birthday Present for Heather. A set of special tea towels. I just couldn't resist the fabric and she has collected the dolls since childhood.
Thinking of all Australians I worked on quilts for others today by preparing more qayg blocks.
This batch of blocks went to Jan.
4 boyish blocks off to Kaite.

happy Aussie day to you dear Terry, the boyish blocks look fab and will settle in very well, thankyou so much. i might make them the 4 corners.
I've been cutting all day, cutting backs and inners and now strips. Col's been snipping corners off inners and sorting scraps from the last lot of blocks.
