Missing posts and Happy New Years

 Okay, so I have missed quite a few posts this year.

I never got around to doing anything to do with an impromptu visit to Scrub Stitchin in April. The theme was winter in the warrumbungles . I decided to make the solar system as it is an area for star gazing.

And of course, the group photo.

There were some great outfits. Here was Chooky 

And Janice.

 

I took a lot more photos but you probably have seen many earlier in the year.

Here was Tony at a cafe on the way home.

It was a huge trip for us and we took a while to get over it but thanks Chooky for accomodating us. Thanks to everyone else for their help with Tony too. 

We look forward to 2026 Scrub Stitchin’. The theme is ‘book week’. 


Then we had a lovely visit from Betty & Kerrie before we headed off to Darwin. Thank you so much for the delicious jams and chocolates from Junee. We did enjoy them on our trip.

I’m sorry if I missed any others as it was a hectic year.

Chooky had a zoom today and it was great to see some bloggers I haven’t chatted with in a while. We did a lot of show n tell, discussed continuing Chookshed 2026 UFO challenge with Deana, lining old hinged tins, recipes, knitting, geckos, broken windows and so much more. Also what were we grateful for in 2025. The best part is we can do it all again tomorrow.

Hopefully I will make more progress on my clue 6 of BH mystery lupine & Laughter. Posts of these clue will be showing in January as will my tins.

Now I’m off to work on my 2026 UFO challenge list….


HAPPY NEW YEAR. LETS HOPE 2026 is a much better year.

Love to you all.

So good you were able to still go to Scrub Stitching and join in the fun.
Also to get a trip to Darwin.
Hope that 2026 is a better year for both Tony and you. 🤗

I missed you on zoom yesterday but will try to get on again today for awhile. Sounds like a lot went on after my battery died!

Happy New Year to you both, and happy stitching in 2026.

Loved your photos from Scrub Stitchin'! What fun!!
And it was very fun to catch up with you on Zoom and discuss all those things--and more.
Here's hoping that 2026 brings more joys than trials!!

It was so lovely to visit on zoom. Wish I had felt well enough to come back the next day. I will certainly be on this year whenever I can.

You’ve no idea how happy we were to see you turn up at Scrub Stitchin’ and the boys really enjoyed hanging out with Tony. Bring on 2026 version. It was a great day on. On on New Year’s Eve. The best way to end the year.

Happy New Year Jo! It was so cool that you were able to make it to SS - a nice blast from the past to see the photos! (I have yet to catch up on all mine as well!)
