Real wool is lovely to work with. When you have finished with the rain, please send some over here to the West, haven't seen anything for months.<br /><br />Happy days.<br />Bev.Bev Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01779873950474515819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2153748473771681458.post-81647094485209557802014-02-17T12:52:34.110+11:002014-02-17T12:52:34.110+11:00glad to hear you have gotten some rain.

What a difference it makes to everything, including my mood! You new rule is a gorgeous find, love the patina of the wood. Very special to have one of your Dad's too. I wonder if anyone will ever hold our quilting paraphernalia in the same way? You have been busy keeping your projects ticking along. No wonder your arm was sore after all that prepping. Can't believe how far along you are with the novelty hexies. You will need to conjour up some grandchildren to enjoy that quilt with! A long comment for a long post.

The rulers are priceless. I remember my Dad using those ruler too. I'm sure you could find a use for it in your sewing room. How lovely do those little half square triangles look! Love the green around the hexies - so fresh and pretty. I use a lot of Patons wool too and so did my Mum - Totem and Bluebell Crepe. <br /><br />Raining here all weekend too - it's wonderful but we really don't need it. Wish it would go our west.
