Lifes too short

Everyday  LIFE brings us a lesson.

Whether that lesson be delivered to you in a kind and gentle way, or in a sudden and tragic one, Its trying to get your attention and tell you something.

This week a very beautiful man was taken  so suddenly from so many people who adored him.
His name was BOBBY REES.

His death has awakened my mind in so many ways.

LIVE your BEST life, BOBBY was larger than life and lived his to the fullest.

I know I will.

                                                     R.I.P  BOBBY.

Away we go

Purses purses everywhere!!

I just love love this fabric. It was a beautiful Tea towel that I spied whilst visiting my Mum with my girls. She was keen to hold onto it but I begged.....well I said," how could you possibly buy something like that and not give it to me? Its me, its even made in Brasil" hehhe it was very funny. But she believed me, of course she should, so on my happy little way i went home with it! And a few other lovely fabrics ill show you soon. Lucky hey? Thanks mum x

Beautiful Brasil Fabric

Today was a wonderful day!!

I made this beautiful purse as one of many that will be going into my Etsy shop very very soon. I took lots of photos thinking I could list them today, but quickly realised that wasnt going to happen,  as I am sooo not a photographer.

Progress is good!

Hi all, what lovely rain we have had. My garden is gloriously GREEN. Thanks to my husbands constant attention also! Not so great for some, as parts of the Gold Coast have been flooded.
WHY do people still continue to cross flood waters? It baffles me. I think I have seen too much on floods this weekend. We watched a dvd on floods with our girls,  just to show them  that it can actually cause lots of devastation. ( This was after they spyied an amazingly huge puddle and wanted to play in it!! )The force of flooding waters are just incredible. It dosnt have to be deep in order to move things,  especially little people.

Anyway, lots of cutting was achieved in these rainy days. I made about 25 brooches. and 3 lovely purses. I will load some photos on here tonight when Marconi gets home as im not having much luck with this area on my new toy!!
