I blame Facebook!

I have been hijacked by Facebook!  It has seduced me with its instant response.  Its voyeuristic images are so tempting.  It carries me all over the world at the click of the mouse.  Sigh.


I really must get back to here and think more about who I am and what I do.  The instant gratification of Facebook is addictive.  Nowonder the kids of tady are hooked on it.

Dear Reader,  I once again appologise for having abandoned you for the frivolity of Facbook.


What have I been doing, you ask.  Well, I have been dyeing fabric for two baby quilts for two precious grand babies and sewing siggy blocks (I have had them since 2007).





Hrey Fantail, Acrylic on canvas  12" x 12"





I have been learning how to paint with acrylics, and sewing 1 1/2 inch hexies  to use up the huge pile of scrapes I seem to have accumulated,








Rust Dyeing





I have written several articles for an Australian magazine (Down Under Textiles) and generally keeping busy!









Every chance I get, I photograph the environment around me.

I too have have succumbed to the world of FB! It is addicting to scan and see so much so quickly isn't it. I do so enjoy your blog and hope you keep it! AT least a once a week or month update!! :)

I know, Facebook can be a big time sucker. I love that rust piece.

Nice to see you back with a taster of what you have been up to. The rust dyeing is just gorgeous and your fantail is superb. Congratulations too on your magazine articles.

I have been amazed at how much more productive I have been since limiting myself to 10 minutes a day on FB. Instant gratification, yes but a real time consumer if I'm not strong willed.

Nice to see you back on your blog, but lucky me - I get you here AND on FB. :)
