This side of the chair is sea side and water scenes. Harry by the Sea, I am going to add sewing thread to the seaweed to make that pop. Then I am going to colour in the drawings to make them show up more too. since doing the r2d2 on the back i decided to give drawing the go. This is so much fun.
Spotlight had 40% off fabric yesterday ans along with the masculine fabrics I already had i have made a box of fabric to go to the Aussie Hero Quilts to post on Tuesday. It was very busy in Spotlight as you can imagine, so being my usual self I asked people what they are making, (I get so excited in Spotlight and I am very nosey) and told them what i was going to do. One lady ahead of us in the queue is in the forces and she had not heard of Ausise Hero Quilts and her mum is a quilter so I gave her the details. It was really lovely to talk to someone who may in the future be recieving one of these lovely creations, and i thanked her for what she is doing. She gave me a hug which was wonderful. The hour while we were waiting to be served went by very quickly.

The quilts have been put on the chair to protect it from the cats, Meggie has pulled it down from the top of the chair, then given up trying to get underneath it and decided it was enough and fell asleep.
