Hiking along the Hawkesbury River

5 May 2017 Filed Under: Out & About

Last Sunday, I had a quilt judging assignment in preparation for the Hawkesbury Show that is on this weekend,  5-7 April May. There’s something very charming about agricultural shows. Here’s the jam and preserves class awaiting judging:The show venue is nearly two hours from Copacabana so we decided to take the opportunity to take the […]

Out and About: Mount Penang Gardens

4 July 2016 Filed Under: Inspiration, Out & About

Combine a glorious day with family visiting from overseas and it was time to go exploring. After discharging our civic duty and voting in the federal election (complete with sausage sizzle), we headed to the newly opened Gosford Classic Car Museum and then onto Mount Penang Gardens.

30 December 2015 Filed Under: Out & About, Travel

Snowflakes on the Strand: Regent Street had a Dr Who vibe with timepiece motifs catching the welcome sun. Fortnum & Mason boasted window feasts […]

Textiles at the Ashmolean Museum

14 December 2015 Filed Under: Inspiration, Out & About, Travel

This post comes from a damp and gray England where the Laundry King, his sister and her husband and I are spending the holidays.  Our home exchange house is situated near St Albans to the north of London and makes a great base for day trips.  Our first excursion was to Bletchley Park, the central […]
