Honeybunch is what I used to call my son when he was little. Corny I know, but he was a little bunch of honey. Now he's that species called 'adult male'! This is the story of my quilting life.

Not much Quilting...
... is getting done around here (but plenty of shopping has!) I have been away for a few days visiting family and of course I had to visit the fabric shops on the way. I got a lovely pack of brown, cinnamon, chocolate type fabrics from Grandmothers Garden. I will have to get onto making that coffee quilt I have a pattern for. Perhaps if I stop drinking the stuff so much I'll have more time. Last night I did some hand applique on a block from a quilt I started last year. I think I sewed around two petals of one flower. I usually only do hand sewing when there is something good on TV but I was shifting boxes of quilting magazines yesterday so it was all I could do to concentrate on the programme itself (well that's my excuse anyway). I've started watching the re-runs of Black Books - seriously funny if you have that kind of sense of humour. I didn't realise that there was a little prequel to the programme. Last night's was 'The Grapes of Wrath'. I'll be looking out for next week's.
Today I have been cleaning the oven, including pulling it out from the wall and cleaning behind. Thanks for the standing ovation :-) Next job is the fridge. There are all sorts of alien life forms lurking in there.
Today's photo is of a pavement mosaic in Tauranga. Do you think the artist is a quilter?

Ooh, I had a parcel arrive today from Grandmother's Garden - my daughter said to expect it but not to open it until Christmas Day - isn't that cruel?? Its squishy...
