Weekend Away

Last weekend I spent time in Daylesford with some special friends.  Well I only had half a weekend away as I came home early so I could take my woollies to the Arts Centre Melbourne Market on Sunday.

Just had to take a photo of this lamp.

The property had large gardens and even a tennis court.

The weather was overcast and even a little wet at times.

Long Weekend

David and I took a picnic to Daylesford.  We stopped at Lake Jubilee after purchasing our honey supply from O'Toole's Honey Stand.

The day was chilly but we did enjoy some bursts of sunshine.

This lake is so picturesque at any time of the year.  We went for a walk but not the usual long walk.  I was so far behind in finishing hats for the market we came home early.

This little friend was determined he could join us and share our picnic.

Some Mondays need to be .....

Some Mondays need to be a day off for relaxing.  After 2 busy markets over the weekend I spent today with a friend visiting Daylesford and Kyneton.  Beautiful sunny weather and we didn't need to hurry.

Tomorrow will be a different story and I'm sure I'll be full of energy and out to the studio early.

February Daylesford Market

I'm packing for tomorrows Makers Market in the Daylesford Town Hall.  I have been spinning more yarns using a combo of hand dyed fibre and then plying with a natural fibre.

These are some of the new yarns for the market.

This is the great effect you get when knitting the multi coloured yarns.

So back to labels etc. 

Market is from 10am till 4 pm.
