Recovering my Blog

 Well, after many years, I have finally recovered my Blog. It's taken some working out but I can finally post again.

Life has been very quiet for hubby and I over the past few months. And I have decided to restart doing the blog posts weekly as I did before.

In the past few years I have been gradually working on getting some of the tops I have accumulated turned into completed quilts. As I find hand quilting difficult with the onset of arthritis in my hands, I have been getting them quilted by a friend who has a machine quilting business - The Quilt Lady - here in Canberra.

Apart from that, as all of the immediate family have more quilts than they really need, I have been producing tops for Quilts for Others, a part of Canberra Quilters Inc, who donate quilts to refuges, charities who help children and other recipients in the Canberra region who assist those in need. I am on the committee for Quilts for Others, which gives me an outlet for my need to be involved in something outside of the home.

In the time since my last post, my mum has passed away (February 2018), I have a grandson (born 2016), my husband has retired (2016). Both my children are now home owners. 

On the more important quilting front, I will gradually upload photos of the quilts as time permits - I have completed lots, and also photos of the tops donated to QFO (Quilts for Others).
