Richmond village birthday

 On the weekend the village of Richmond celebrated it's 200 year birthday.

There was a parade that spanned the years.

I really love a parade and loved seeing all the costumes and old machinery. Richmond was a convict town with a huge gaol (jail).

















Twelve days of Christmas

 On the first of December I finally got around to start my twelve days of Christmas cross stitch. I don't think I will be finishing these for Christmas this year, but at least I have started.

Farmer's wife sampler quilt blocks

 I am still slowly working through the blocks for my farmer's wife sampler quilt. I had decided to finish the quilt by joining all my blocks together. Then I changed my mind and decided to make the last 13 blocks that form the middle row of the quilt. I thought that if I finished without making the last blocks I may regret that later on. 

Now that I have committed to making them I have slowed down and am struggling to find the inspiration to work on them. I have made the first 4 so that is a start. There is no rush and I can just take my time to finish the last 9.
