So Long Lisa

So Lisa has gone - flew to Australia this morning, on a one way ticket - but she has promised her mummy that she will come back!

She's a light traveller:


and she left her room SO tidy

I felt a bit sorry for myself, but then husband sorted out a silver lining:

And I managed to cheer myself up a bit by sewing, and have finally assembled / basted / quilted this onto a fleece:

Just a few more quilt blocks in strips to go!

Good job I have another week off school ;-)

  3. Your Lisa will have a wonderful time in Aus, I have been 3 times and would love to go again sometime, would need a passport first though!
    The quilt is very colourful, very nice and the work top you have there looks just very useful

  8. What a brilliant husband! Beautiful quilt. I'll keep your girl in my prayers, but I am sure she is going to have some wonderful stories to tell Mum next time you visit.

  9. I know how you feel. My daughter is wintering in Guatemala and Costa rica. She comes back in late March and two weeks later leaves for five months in Alaska.
    I only truly worried when she was taking a bus, alone, to Belize. Most of the time she is staying with friends. Having fun. Doing things you really can only do in your 20's.
    I like your transforming bed/table.
