Vege Patch.

This Sunday Mr G and I indulged in an awesomely lazy day. 

I was feeling a little flu-ish and had a good book to read post-Christmas, so spent most of the morning on the couch reading.

We went for a walk down to Milsons Park with Alfie and visited the new community garden.

It was fantastic! Filled with amazing vege's and herbs.

I'm contemplating joining this Sunday or next :)

Christmas Past.

I made some little decorations for my Christmas tree/Christmas twig this year.

Having been completely obsessed with sewing little fabric hexagons (can't explain this odd phenomenon) I decided that my tree would need to be decorated with Christmas coloured hexagons :)

Here are some pics of the preparations and final outcome.

The adventures of Mr. G.

Mr. G has become a photo genius. He's getting really good at editing photos (usually with an evil/horror theme).

His latest photo was put on the flickr explore page for interestingness :)

It was taken just outside the house.

Yay!

Pizza for Jesse.

We opened champagne to celebrate all the good things that have been going on lately.

Pizza and champagne is tasty!

Alfie in the closet.

The first week in the new place was a bit disorientating.

Both Alf and I missed the comfort and familiarity of home.

Alfie decided that the linen closet was comfier than the bed, since the floor was covered in (familiar smelling) linen.

I caught him eying his new bed and then couldn't resist taking a photo of him all comfy in his little nook.

The Empty House.

After a couple of months of hectic activity I am finally starting to see a beautiful window of opportunity for more exciting adventures and many equally exciting posts.

A couple of weeks ago I moved into a beautiful house in Kirribilli.

I never truly realised how exhausting and intense moving house can be and now have a new-found respect for anyone who has ever moved/will ever move.

Apart from being a tiring workload, (with many boxes to fill and unpack on the other side) the excitement of the whole process makes moving extremely exhausting!

It was very sad to say goodbye to the old house which held so many special memories. We lived in the house for 10 years and it had been our only home in Australia since we immigrated. There are many exciting parts to moving but seeing the house empty and deserted is quite an eerie feeling. I took a couple of images to record our abandoned abode and to say a final goodbye.

There's also a photo of the Chandelier that I smashed with my head when jumping with Mr.G (don't ask!)

Knot-A-Rug

I'm extremely excited to reveal my completed rug!

The rug is both a game and a decorative display rug. Designed for use in shared housing, it splits into four. Each individual rug can be owned by different people. 

The purpose of the rug is to unite individuals that share a living space.

The rug is based on the board game 'Ludo' which is a 2-4 player game.

It will be on display at the COFA annual (24th to the 27th November) in the company of many exciting designer works. 

Hope you like it!
