June is done and dusted

 I know I'm getting old but where did June go?

What have I been doing? well I have read a few books.

These two were great, The Mother is an Australian author. I also read The Weekend by Charlotte Wood, I wasn't impressed by it I finished it but only so I could find out what happened. I thought it was typical of how friends and mainly women can turn on each other.

I have quit my job I wasn't happy there from the start I will hopefully be starting a new job soon, so I have been doing some baking. I have made Pizza scrolls and English Muffins, the fire is great for proving dough. I also made some Chicken and Leek pies.

We have sold out of our tomato sauces and almost ran out of the Pickled Cucumbers I didn't think that could happen we had so many.

Last weekend I was at Coolah for the Mirage Quilt workshop, it was a two day workshop, the first day was just cutting! I stayed at a friends place overnight and had a great time, the Coolah girls run great workshops, the lunches and morning teas are awesome. Think pumpkin soup with garlic bread and chocolate chip bread and butter pudding for dessert, yumm.

The sheep were moving around in the paddock next door and gave us funny looks when we baahed at them. Kate has some beautiful roses in her garden and these hanging pots were gorgeous in full flower.

The pattern for the Mirage quilt was a bit daunting at first but once we got started with the cutting and labelling pieces it got easier. I can't wait to finish it and I plan to do another in greys.

I've also been doing my Churn Dash blocks for Chooky blues SAL. I am so devo that I am missing the Sydney Craft Show but I will plan ahead for next year.

Thanks for stopping by and reading my rambling
