No pictures today, but I've had a great week, albeit it tiring. My job has been sooooo busy, but during the week a book order arrived that I'd been waiting on. Ordered a few weeks back & 3 great books arrived (and all at good prices too) on the Battle of Fromelles, Stories from the survivors of the Thai-Burma Railway & Constructing Australia. Can't wait to look at the Fromelles book - so much detail.
Then a towel rail arrived on the same day - not a big deal, but it was just like Christmas, with lots of new things.
And yesterday a thank you card arrived from one of the quilt owners, with a very nice thought to treat myself. All I wanted was to just get her quilt put together & see her enjoy it. So nice and unexpected. So I bought 3 new Cottage Garden Threads yesterday in the blue tones as a starting point.
And about 10 days ago we had over 100mm rain in less than 24 hours - and when you don't have mains water, rain like that is a bonus. Must take some photos of how everything is now so green (and not just one shade of green either) - looks a bit like a DMC palette of green.
3 weeks to Easter too - I'm looking forward to some family visiting & spending some time with them.
I hope your week has been filled with nice surprises or at the very least nothing has gone horribly wrong.
Thanks for reading - ~Karen~

Dont you just love getting things in the mail; I do!
ReplyDeleteHow nice that one of the quilt owners sent you a thank you card. It is nice to know that what you have done is appreciated.
Enjoy the books.
You've had some wonderful happy mail. Enjoy your cottage garden threads. I love the ones I have and have been playing with them today. Those books sound wonderful too so topical with Anzac Day just round the corner.
