085 - Happy Wednesday!

It's a glorious day outside, let me share with you some photos:



It's such a glorious day outside, perfect weather.  We are so lucky that in this period of what will be shut down (it's coming, drip by drip here in Australia) we have a big back yard and lots of space to be in.  I don't know how you guys in apartments with no gardens are surviving it - I'm thinking lots of good thoughts for you.

It's hard to find colour at the moment - but there is some!


DH has been saying he'll get to this plant 'when he gets time'.

Hah.  All the time in the world now!


In my garden, I have the most wonderful lemon scented gum.  You have to rub the leaves between your hands to smell it but it's so lovely, and this tree is the 'climbing tree' in our family.  I just need to remember not to watch the children while they are climbing it, it totally freaks me out.

Out behind that tree is the neighbour's fruit block.  Australia uses a lot of backpacking labour to pick the fruit, with the borders shut now to outside travellers it's all very curious how the fruit will be picked.  At least we won't run out of food, we'll have all the oranges in the world to eat.  We won't get scurvy!

And as this is fundamentally a quilting blog, two blocks for our scrap block challenge we are doing at our now online facebook quilting group !

Hope you're all coping, thank god we can sew!
