Hi Leonie

Fantastic Garden!  Wish i could grow my vegies like that!  Unfortunately I'm not much of a green thumb!  But I try!  LOL!

Great to hear you're eating your greens - I'm eating heaps of them too as I believe they're meant to be really good for you!

cheers

Wow! Things sure grow quickly up your way.I've just made a small herb garden and a few plants are beginning to grow.What are you putting in the soil?

Hi Leonie - You will have to take a photo of your garden or your favorite flowers to share with us! Your garden is your piece of artwork.

I have so many projects to complete (just to get started).  October is out with all the fundraising and congress but maybe November.  I love to create but at present what i am creating is my garden.  I am eating my veggies and i love it. XLeonie

Gold thread? What a good idea -- there must be so much you can do with the different textures and types of materials when working with fabric. 

I do like the composition -- it makes me think of alien plants flowering (then again, I could just have been watching too much of the SciFi channel! :)

Oh, wow, love it! :)  I've never tried working with fabric, but I love what you've done there.  Are they roses I can see?

I'm so glad you're taking notes!

If you're willing - I'll officially nominate you the secretary of the conference for Room 912 CL's and announce it on the group's page!

LOL! 

I'm serious though...I know they're are a few of us that can't make it and it would be good to hear about it - although having said that I'll find out if BCNA are going to release notes afterwards (might save you some work!).

I'll let you know (and yes I'm hoping I get some good luck sooner rather than later)

luv H

Sorry to hear you won't make it to Sydney but totally understand. Breast cancer takes it's toll on the finances,that's for sure.You have had some hard times losing your home and job- very unfair.You must surely be in for some good luck next year.I will be taking notes at the conference so will email you any interesting or up to date info.So darl,you won't miss too much. Hope all is going well with your new job.

Hello darl

Sorry to hear you're not well....hope you get rid of it really soon.

Thanks for telling me how you made the hanging - I luv the idea of glueing - very easy!! (except of course if you glue yourself!! LOL!

One of my friends makes hangings and quilts but she does it the complicated way - all stitched and stuffed etc - proper quilting which for me at the moment is    a) too hard and  b) too time consuming!

Sadly I have to tell you that I'm unable to come up to Sydney - I simply can't afford it.  Just between you and me, I lost my house (we now rent) due to this cancer.  I had lost main job in Dec 2010 (long story very unfair) and unknown to me I was getting sick, so the jobs I did manage to secure I ended up stuffing up because I couldn't concentrate.  When I finally did get a good job - the one I'm in now - found out on the Monday I got the job and then found out I had cancer on the Thursday the same week!  Talk about bad luck....oh well.

Anyway we're just trying to get on our feet financially and I thought I'd make it but alas it's just not realistic.  I'm really disappointed - particularly because of the speakers (most in the medical field that I used to work in)but I suppose there will be one next year.

So I'll be thinking of everyone when it's on.  I'm going to put in a post on Room 912 now to let the others know.

In the meantime darl, you take care and get well....there's plenty of time to get out there as a CLO - remember be kind to yourself! 

Bye for now

Luv H
