Well the community quilt is finished and donated to the Thames Community along with several others. I think to date my quilting group has donated about 21 quilts and there are still some more to be finished.

I am a bit behind with my blocks in the Splendid Sampler quilt but these are the latest ones I have managed to do.
The weather here has been horrid raining everyday but then it is winter so it is what we should expect. I off to Taupo on wednesday to play golf with some friends from Patea. A 2 day teams competition so that will be a lovely catchup. Just hoping the weather is kind to us as it can be very cold in Taupo and the weather report is for snow in the mountains.

Bonus Block The Splendid Sampler.

I have made one of the bonus blocks. I came accross this bright fabric in my stash so thought it would make a nice bright block. The other block (the dresden plate) is number 26. It has been raining here for most of the week so is very wet under foot. If you are visiting thanks for looking.

Had a bad day in the kitchen today. broke the glass plate out of the microwave so it is down to the secondhand shop to see if I can get another one and then the apple pie I was cooking for dinner overflowed and burnt to the bottom of the oven yak.
