The bunting bunted its way to Auckland

I put my best bunting dispatcher on the job, and the bunting arrived just in time to make an appearance at the Between Tides exhibition Westmere beach. I was delighted to see photos sent by the lovely Lyn. Surprised by the difference the quality of light. 

Getting carried away

I've been going wild with the sewing machine, and having fun. I love how the material 'bubbles' as a result of the little spirals and circles. 

Little patches found lurking in sewing box

Having opened up my sewing box, I found no blue cotton - needed to repair daughter's school jumper. To the cotton reserved for art - yay blue! But also rediscovered some patch badge things I made a while ago. Had great intensions of sewing  them onto clothing, but then couldn't see myself wearing them.

May need to make some less challenging images - maybe a dog!
