With a liberal
dose of Fear and Excitement - DD set off on a Grand Adventure.
A 12 month
Research position at the University of Strasbourg in France.
February
A new BOM - or rather Technique of the Month Quilt

March
March began by being frayed at the edges with Allietaire,
Got Stung several times in the one day by DD's Bees.
Had my car damaged by an inattentive taxi driver
and then finished the month off
watching a doosy of a Cyclone bear down on Friends and Family in
QLD.
April
Ah - What can I
say about April?
April was Paris and Strasbourg.
Cramming our memories with so much Beauty
and then return to celebrate my Father's 94th Birthday.
May
What happened to
May?
I spent my time finishing up Allietaire and my Mystery Quilt
sections
only to find I was totally up to date and looking for something to
do!
Milestone Birthday for me
celebrated by a trip 'down the Peninsula'
and a ride on the new Eagle Chairlift.

Wow, it was a big year when you put it all together like that!
ReplyDeleteHope 2018 is fabulous.
It seems almost surreal that it all happened in just a single year. So many highs and lows that you navigated and still came out the end with your beautiful smile. :) I loved hearing about your travels over a cup of tea.
