A bit of this and a bit of that

I have been rather quiet but have been busy.  I have been making cushions with my hand dyed eco prints.  

Then from 12 August we were involved with a group of skiers from Lithuania.  They had come for the World Lithuanian Ski races that they had organised to be held the following weekend at Guthega. It was  a very busy week but lots of fun as we renewed friendships with several members of the group with whom we had gone to Antarctica two years ago.

I am also working on a small quilt as part of a a challenge by NSW Quilter’s Guild.  One has to use at least one hexagon the size provided to members by the guild.  As soon as I saw the challenge  I knew exactly what I wanted to make.  Took me a while to get to it.  I painted some fabric and  tried to do a sun print of several different sized hexagons.  A pity it is winter and the sun is not that hot but I did get part of a print and am happy with it. 

So I am now working on the background.  I just hope I have time to finish it on time.
