@kmakm I can't wait for the conference in Melbourne. Only 62 sleeps to go before I leave for Perth and then 2 more and I am in Melbourne. I will be spending a week in Melbourne, from
9 August to 17 August.
Only spoiling time between now and Melbourne is my 12 month scans in Perth at the end of June. However what ever happens at the scans will just have to wait until after Melbourne.
Definitely want to meet up with "sista" members. We will need some identifying methods as to who we are. I will be the strange "lady" dressed in out of fashion Antartic clothing and probably shivering!!
@Sister Mystery Road is excellent. It was filmed around Wyndham just 700 kms up the road from us. Similiar country. And the dialogue, scenes and behaviour is true to form. What we see every day! Ian, my husband, and myself are totally absorbed in it, so much so, that we are recording it to watch again later.
Speaking of boabs I have a huge boab with a girth of 7 metres, just off my back verandah. It forms a focal point of the garden.
@Artferret How I would love to do an embroidery workshop. Somehow the internet tutorials are just not the same. I have lots of UFO's. Found some the other day and so i am again inspired. Whether they will be finished depends on what grabs my attention next. At the moment doll making is "flavour of the day"
I call these dolls my Boab Babes. I dye the body fabric using pindan. Pindan is our red dirt. Makes a great dye. You never get pindan out of your white clothes! The dolls are "born" at the bottom of our boab trees! I sell them at our market stall held at the CWA cottage in town on Saturday mornings. I have my crafts and Ian has his wood turning. Classical music is also my passion. My sewing room vibrates with the orchestral sounds of classical cd's. Nothing like sewing to the great classics.
