On Top of the World, Looking down on Creation


There is only one wish on my mind

When this day is through I hope that I will find

That tomorrow will be just the same for you and me

All I need will be mine if you are here

I'm on the top of the world lookin' down on creation

And the only explanation I can find

Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around

Your love's put me at the top of the world

Whats happening with my BOM

"A few of my favourite Things" BOM, is well underway, I have the stitcheries done, now I have to put the block together, then I'll be ready to go, hopefully before the end of the month.

And some beautiful new books full of great project!





A stitchers dirty little secret!

Let take pride in the dirty secret that lies behind the beauty!


Lets see the backs of those panels, they can't be any worse then mine!

Even out of focus it looks bad!

BOM Project planning

Ok, today I had to suffer (ha ha) through a visit to Marally Craft (http://www.marallycraft.com.au). I picked out some lovely fabric to base my BOM around and got a shiny new art book.

So now to put my thoughts and sketches together, and put some instructions to it all.

Here's a sneek peak at the fabric, isn't it pretty.




Aren't I spoilt!


Aren't I spoilt! I received a pretty stitchery bookmark, from the wonderful Ondrea for the craft forum, in th bookmark swap, she was very paitent with we as I posted mine late!


Thank you it is so me!
