Hello again!

I'm back home getting ready 

for my return to work tomorrow! Blah!

I found an adorable toy sewing machine 

in my travels,

to add to my collection,

saw some of our 'sunburnt country'....



and some of our 'jewelled seas'!


And the reason for the trip.....

No, I didn't do the community ride!


But they are still smiling 

after cycling 150+ kilometres,

We followed this by a delicious meal...

Pork belly- yum!

And, finally, I managed some slow sewing!


Happy days!

Looks like a jolly time, but I bet you are very tired! Sleep well, and have a great week.

Your lovely machine is a great bonus from the trip.
Great to have had a lovely week away before heading back to work. The holidays always go too quickly.

Well done to all the riders and best of luck for school tomorrow. We've done all the book labelling and pencil case collation here - topped with a meal of BBQ salmon for all those Omega 3s! Ready to learn!

Sounds like the perfect way to end your summer holidays. Hope school goes ok too.....

Love your little sewing machine, looks like you have had a great time. I know going back to work sucks but somehow we have to bring some money in so we can keep quilting!

Wonderful pictures Susan! It's hard to have a holiday come to an end. Hopefully you can savour the return to work as well!

Welcome back, saddle sore?
I've been naughty and nearly managed to machine stitch a kingsize quilt whilst you've been off getting fit!
