A road less travelled....

I've been away for a few days....

Enjoying the tranquility of a beautiful B&B...

Image

Yes, this IS a bathroom....

Image

This is the view out the front window....


Image

Although the weather was cool, 

there were signs of Spring...

Image

We've had lots of Spring rain...

Image

so the Trentham Falls were flowing!

We travelled up to Mt Macedon...

Image

with its Memorial Cross soaring skywards.

My father was station master here, 

Image

back in the 1940's.

There was much needed refreshment...

Image

and some retail therapy too!

Image
A new knitting pattern and a hand knitted scarf

Now I am itching to getting back to some stitching..

Happy days!

Zakka Pouch...

I know I showed you this the other day, 

but I wanted to tell you a little more about it!

Image

My pouch ended up a little larger 

than the original pattern.  

It called for half square rectangles but I didn't have 

the facilities to print the pattern....

Image

So I started with 2" ones and adjusted the pattern 

from there...

Image

I've had this leftover piece of Ikea fabric for years 

and it became the perfect lining!

 I interfaced the lining to make the pouch a little 

more sturdy.

Image
I can see more of these in my future!

Linking up with Debbie....

Image
Happy days!
