A Huge Q Fail

Q was this fortnights letter.. and I haven't done a thing.. Q is a difficult letter to do with the categories we were given !  Anyway, I will try and get it done during the next two weeks along with this fortnights letter/categories.. as long as it isn't a Z or something..

Scatterday R

A bit late today, I went out to lunch.. it was a long lunch..!

Anyway, todays catergories are mammal, transport, technology and red from the sewing/quilting room..  (I can't get my mosaic maker to play nicely today)

Mammal: This mammal is a Reilly.. he is a cutie.. :)

Transport: Here we have a Rubbish Truck, transporting our rubbish away !

Technology: I fear this one has been done to death but I haven't looked at anyone elses blog yet.. a Remote.. a wonderful piece of technology..  :)

Red from the sewing room: Red Rayon.. machine embroidery thread.. used recently on the quilt I am making for my sister.

Scatterday W

WOW.. here we are, a few years on, doing Scatterdays again..  I sort of failed and sort of made it this time..

W is the letter

Expensive, musical, exciting and WIP are the categories:

I lucked out on the expensive.. i actually forgot to take the pic while I was at the shops..  :(

Musical is the magpie because their Warbling sounds very musical..

Exciting is the Whirlybird parked on the racecourse outside my front door.. (when Black Caviar was running here, which was exciting..!)

and

WIP is the both the grandchild due April and the 1600 quilt top waiting for batting and backing.  It wont be for the WIP grandchild because it is the wrong colour..

Let's hope next week is a better effort..!  :)

Scatterday L

I have been slack the last few weeks.. I couldn't think of anything for the letters, so I didn't do them, plus the weather has been awful and I didn't feel like travelling by bus further than I absolutely had to. I will try and do better!!

This week was easy, I didn't have to leave home ! The letter is L and the categories are Household Item, Round and Tools.

Household Item: Here we have a ladle and a looking glass. Not as magic as Alice's though.
Round: I have hundreds of round lids but took a picture of only 2.. seen one (or two), seen them all.. also we have loot or loose change - some of which is round!
Tools: I was going to take a picture of the lathe at school but forgot my camera on both days.. which is unusual. So I have a leaf blower. If I could have got the shed open, I would have taken a pic of the lawn mower too..

and the L is made from 2 pairs of scissors.. :)

Scatterday H

OOps, I am late this week.. but I have done my scatterday pictures! Colour, games and pointy things were the subjects so here is my contribution:

Colour: Beautiful Hand-dyed colour.. who knew it could be so much fun!

Games: This is a Hopscotch mat at The Princess' childcare centre

Pointy Things: My Hairbrush has pointy things on it.. it is the only one I can get through my hair!

Now to go find what torture awaits me for next week..!

Scatterday S

Today is Scatterday S, with the categories Fruit, Something that makes you Itchy and Gold. I hope I pass this week!

Fruit: Strawberries.. probably like most people will have !

Something that makes you itchy: Sticking plaster.. most brands give me a rash which is very, very, incredibly itchy!

Gold: My gold-handled embroidery scissors.

Scatterday I

Another week, another wierd and wonderful letter... and a week of wondering what on earth I am going to take pictures of! I needed Australian, In The Air and Yellow.. so here are my contributions..
Australian: I found a few Australian Items.. these are actually made in Australia!
In The Air: I know - it just looks like smoke.. but it is definitely an Impurity in our air..
Yellow: I seem to find lots of yellow things! Yellow Interior/Inside of a mug; Yellow Instructions and the Yellow Iris of one of our cats..
