November 2012

Since my last post I have been travelling to Australia again and am only just beginning to catch up on all things textile. As usual I have too many ideas to commit to pictures but I am determined to genrate some embroideries of Leura in the coming months.  The images below are of a garden open in the Leura garden festival.  It was strange to see spring flowers out when I had left autumn trees behind in the UK.
As soon as I have created images I will try to post them either here or on my website.  As I now have time to practice more I find my skills at free machine embroidery are improving, meaning that I can add even more detail to the images I create.
Inevitably we went to Echo point and to the thre sisters lookout. I must have 7 different photos of this view as have been here every time I have visited Australia. One day I will look them all out. The grey hairs should be less in the earlier versions!  We also went to cuddle the Koals at Featherdale again. The roos were on strike during our visit. It was too hot for them to come out of the shade. Must admit I was ready for the cooler weather at home after my trip.
