thankfully with the help of many firefighters, volunteer's and water bombers over several days they finally contained the fire.
Family from Queensland arrived soon after and we enjoyed their visit for a week. While here my SIL and I did plenty of chatting and did some craft making Stars.

Last week it was time to clean up the yard, put away pot plants and anything that may take off with strong winds etc we were expecting with the cyclone. It was a relief when it didn't
arrive but at least we had a big clean up.
Now I'll show you what I've been up to in the Cave.
Working on some more 'Sunshine and Lollipop" Blocks
It's been tricky working out to make the quilt into a single bed size rather than like the pattern but I'm getting there.
I've also made some carrots which I filled with little choccie eggs that I gifted to my coffee friends.
I pleased that I have finally been able to do this post and load photos even though it's taken nearly two hours......
Must away now and have a much-needed cuppa..
Wishing everyone a Safe and Happy Easter....
Happy Stitching
Hugs Maria 💖
Fire is so frightening, glad it was contained and also that the cyclone passed you by. Such pretty blocks Maria. Happy Easter. xx
