There's something about this fabric from .

It lends itself so beautifully to every peice I make.

This design is called 'Homing Instincts' and over the next few weeks I'll be busy making it into pot holders, oven mitts and whatever else I come up with.

For me, the last few weeks has been all about getting off social media, enjoying time with family and only sewing for enjoyment. 🎄

How many trucks does it take to change a power pole 🤔

A last minute power outage has meant time for stall maintenance before tomorrow.

Look closely and you'll see the Western Power crew working flat out in the paddock. 🔌 💡

Power outages are part of normal life in the Wheatbelt and we've learnt to roll with it without much complaining 😅
