It's been a busy weekend as restrictions have lifted somewhat and we were finally able to have our children and their partners over to visit. Our eldest DD was working last Christmas and we were planning on having another Christmas gathering in January but due to family illness and the Covid-19 virus, we were unable to hold it until this weekend. It was lovely to finally get together but I was so busy with cooking etc that I didn't have time to take photos.
I also finished quilting 5 more donated tops, the first is from Sarah Williams (NSW) and it's such a beautiful quilt.
Illene Tiziani (Vic) donated this lovely seaside kid's quilt top.
Helen Stewart from Vic sent this lovely large top for a male.
Wendy Snook (Vic) donated this beautiful pastel quilt top.
Clare Jamieson from WA sent this beautiful top for a young boy.
I also finished 2 knitting projects that had been put aside for a while and finished these baby jackets for the Peter Mac auxiliary shop to sell and raise funds for patient services. So that's UFO 4 and 5 finished for this year, which is slower than last year but better than none.
I also received an incredible amount of donations over the last few days and will have to document and photograph everything as soon as possible. It was lovely to have some family time and I will catch up as soon as I can.
Hugs, Jan Mac
