Well life has been interesting around here! Australia Day was Saturday 26th January, and Queensland was hammered with storms! It was a long weekend and many people ended up flooded, cut off, no electricity and generally very, very wet!
|
This is Morwong Beach on Coochie where I live. (When I went looking for a photo of the beach in calm conditions in my own collection and couldn't find one! This one comes from here) |

Same beach on January 28. Not the same table, but it is in the same spot. |
We didn't fare too badly, lost power on Sunday afternoon at about 3.30, with only 5 of 13 squares left to pebble! Didn't get power back until the Wednesday afternoon and didn't get back to the machine until the weekend - but it's now finished!
It most probably has the most quilting of any quilt I've ever done, and I must say I like the effect. The finish also means I can take record 9 FQ's as going out for my
SYST challenge as I used fabric I bought this year for the backing. Unfortunately a little online and LQS shopping spree means that I am adding 87 FQ's to the in column! Just as well I have plans for it all!

A little bit of stippling here... |
|
...and a lot of pebbling here! |
My only problem now is what to call it! Have a day or two to decide as I need to pick up some more printable fabric...but I am at a total loss! The baby's name is Toby...any ideas?
