I love a rainy day ...

...and we are certainly having our fair share of those at the moment.  A good opportunity to do a catch-up post...

I've made a start on the baby quilt for my new grandson.  I think Marnie gave me the quilt top years ago, so I'm happy to have an opportunity to use it :)  I bought some tartan flannelette, and was just going to quilt the two layers together, but then decided to use some thin polar fleece in the middle to make is a bit more padded... 

Pinned the three layers together...

And I have started hand quilting it (although you can't really see the quilt stitches in the photo)...

I haven't done any hand quilting for years.  It makes a nice change from the knitting and crocheting :)

I finished the fourth book in this series and really enjoyed them...

Now I'm reading this...

We are off daylight-saving time now, so our evenings are darker earlier.  When I finish my dinner and dishes, I've been continuing to work on my Fistula blanket squares, while watching episodes of the Waltons before bed.

Have you watched this series? 

I only have Season 1, but am enjoying it again :)

Still on track with my 'one chapter a day from the New Testament' Bible reading.  Today it's Acts Chapter 13.

This past week I listened to an interesting audio (although there is also an option to watch on YouTube) from Anabaptist Perspectives. It goes for just under an hour. 

So, take a break, make yourself a cup of tea or coffee, and have a listen. 

 

Here's the link.

Enjoy
