2016 - The Year that was.

January
The Year got off to a melting start with 44⁰ C temperatures
and a good reason not to be outside!


February
Was the time to start on those UFOs
One down and One into the THB (Too hard basket)


March
Another UFO finished,
taming the pile of scraps in the sewing room and the weeds at DD's home


April
I took you on a tour of the Royal Exhibition Buildings in Carlton


May
Volunteering for way to many projects at once
An Anniversary, Book launch, Mothers Day and Starting a new quilt
What was I thinking?


June
A good month for adding to my knitting wool stash, 
Baking, working on WIPs and finishing PhDs


July
To celebrate our 'Coral' (35th) Wedding Anniversary
A trip to the Great Barrier Reef
and meeting up with Quilter friends as well!


August
Cake decorating and Stencilling with the Scan 'n Cut


September
Welcome to Spring!


October
Finally getting to the "Making of the Australian Quilt" exhibition
 to see the Rajah Quilt 


November
The hand stitching is done, borders are on.
"My Istanbul" is finished and back from being Custom Quilted.


December
I have been sharing "Who I am and What I do" with you for 6 years now 
and I have also shared the important things that happen around me.
In those same 6 years Our Beautiful DD has been working on her PhD (Chemistry)
She finally graduated - It was a Happy Day!


As I have prepared this "Year in Review" I have thought back and remembered all the things that happened that I haven't written about.  
It has been a VERY busy year, and next year?
... I will keep you posted.

Bye for now and may you have a Safe and Happy New Year.
