My addiction to making baby clothes

 I just can’t help myself.  As soon as I find new fabric,I can’t wait to make a new little smocked dress.

I find it so therapeutic sitting at my sewing machine and creating these little sweeties.

Sew by day and smocked by night. It’s so easy to put a little bit of smocking in my bag when on road trips or little gettaways. No better way to while away the hours

I have been able to support this obsession by selling in my little etsy shop.   etsy.com/shop/jeanetteodonnell

To try and stay healthy as I get older, I have been making my own sour dough bread. That also has become an enjoyable pastime. Getting my hands into the lovely soft dough and the smell in the cosy kitchen when it’s baking is glorious.

Crunch yummy top with soft delicious Centre. Mmmmmm bliss

I hope you all have a lovely day and those doing it tough with this awefull virus and floods and fires my prayers are with you all.

Autumn days

Hello dear friends

The days seem to be flying by this year. Every time I turn around it’s the weekend again. When I worked it went so slowly,how on earth did I ever have time to go out to work,my days are so full.

I am not complaining though as I so enjoy all I fill my days with, that is until this dreadful pandemic arrived into our world. It seems surreal I cannot get my head around the sadness of it all.  So many people have already lost their lives and no end in site.
We are so fortunate here in Australia but my heart goes out to those in the world less fortunate.
Please God bring a swift end to it.
We are retired so it is easy for us to stay home as much as possible.  The worst part is being isolated from friends and family.
Our government has said we can still take walks as long as we stay a metre and a half away at least from people.
So each morning after breakfast we take little Rocky for his walk. We are enjoying seeing all that is happening in our neck of the woods. The Port where we live is going through a rejuvenation at last and there is always something new to see on our walk. Just so quiet as people stay home.

Please stay safe and God Bless

😘
