Here we are again

Hi there …. gosh June already.
How are you all doing out there in the real world?

This is a year we won't forget isn't it, odd, interesting, baffling, infuriating, scary and many, many more such feelings - and many will only surface later maybe.

Little has altered for me, still working from home and enjoying it and in no rush to go back in to the office again.

We can potter around more freely and drive further afield to potter too. But even so, part of me is concerned that an invisible virus is floating about that may infect me which is annoying. The fact that its most likely going to reach me by the lack of common sense in others is most annoying of all lol

I am certainly not worrying myself silly about it however, there is nothing other than basic common sense that I can use to try and help prevent infection. 
But I'm sure it will have coloured the outlook of many of us and our future plans, as to whether we enter the community in the same way we had before.

I am still thinking that through!

And then the appalling death of yet another US black person.
Humanity doesn't learn from history does it and you know, for me, that is the most sad and infuriating thing of all right now.

Some bits Ive made for work - nursery rhyme characters for a Language Unit teacher ..





I finished the skew whiff hexi top, now have to think about how best to back it and quilt it.
I am much happier making the tops than finishing them must admit.


I wish I'd spread the darker diamonds out differently but instead of making all the blocks first and then arranging them, I stitched them togther as I went along.
Learn by my mistakes! 
I do like the skew whiff, castellated edges even though they will be a pain to incorporate on a backing.

Anyway hope all is well, with all of you and yours out there.
Take care
