Back from Melbourne

We are home from Melbourne and had a lovely few days although the weather was a bit up in the air, stinking hot and then damp and warm.
the top photo is of the Melbourne grandchildren off to school. Evie and Will. Will had his guitar with him for his first lesson and was terribly pleased with himself.
the next photo is some of the booty I bought from the Thread Studio stand at the Quilt expo, finnish wool, silk tops, the fibre fusion encrustation book, some stamp stuff some threads all sorts of things I need. The last photo is of a couple of packs of vintage silk kimono off cuts and some silk kits of odds and ends and lovely colors.
Home to try and get things sorted out again after a lovely few days away.
We have had some showers and wind today but John has just come in to tell me that the main dam is very low and not to water the garden.
