spring is on its way

Here is our newest lamb, she seems to like the taste of the bark off this tree and can be seen chewing away at it each morning. I have named her camellia as my first white flower came out the morning she was born. (photo of the flower is later in the post)

Here are the first signs of spring around our place. These daffodils are grown from bulbs that I rescued from my great grand mothers garden. The house no longer stands but these were still flowering and I thought I should save some before the paddock was dug up by the tractor.

This is of course the white camellia and below is my first rhododendron of the season to be out in bloom. It caught me my surprise and so made me very happy when I saw the blooms.

more spinning

Here is a cabled scarf I made for my teenage daughter. She had seen one at our local knit group so I found the debbie bliss book and knitted her up the scarf, only too happy to knit for my children.

This week I went to Judbury to the local craft group and had a great time spinning by the river in the towns new hall. As you can see all the rain we have had has swollen the Huon river to capacity. But it is a great backdrop to a craft group. This must be one of my favourite area, anytime of the year.

This is the park next door. I have often taken my children here. The tree in the distance is always a hit with my children as you can climb inside it and truely get a feeling for how majestic this tree once was. Happy crafting to you all.
