All work and no play ......

All work and no play makes Cathy very sad  LOL

As some of you may know, I have been 'taking a career break' for the last 12 months and have been enjoying my time at home being a 'lady of leisure'.

Well, since 15th October, I have been on a temp assignment - full time hours!!  what a shock to the system that was  LOL

I am enjoying the work - it is nice to be out and about with people and ofcourse, to be earning some money.

I have not had much time for crafting or blogging, but wanted to show you something I have done recently.

A few months back, my SIL RosaLia asked if I could make a little something for Liam.  His Respiratory Group at the Adelaide Women's and Children's Hospital wanted to make a quilt to hang up in foyer.  Liam picked the subject matter - it had to include a rocket.  ;-)


Above photo is the raw quilt square - rocket has been hand cut and appliqued with sewing machine.  Stars, moon and Letters are sticky foam.

here is a photo of it all sewn up and on the wall.

the following two photos give you an idea just how big this quilt is - There are some amazing squares that have an awful lot of work in them. 




I was so proud to be part of this project and hope to get to see it in real life one day.
