A splash of yellow —

— on a wet day.

From frosts to rain. We had a soggy day today, so once the animals were all fed and happy, I spent a day in The Palace. 

On a Sunday I ignore the bookwork/office duties so I had some of extra sewing time.

First of all I tackled a wee job that has been waiting...converting several of Olive's bassinet sheets into a cot sheet!

I'd cut up a length of poplin to make the bassinet sheets, and now it is one piece again!!

Then, under the supervision of two cats —

I made the August Rainbow Scrap Challenge block. 

(Whoops, swapped out the sunflower print)

I was amazed at how long it took me to find enough yellows for the block!

It was still raining this afternoon when the afternoon calf feeding marathon began again. Yesterday I (and Odie) started feeding the oldest 20 with the bike feeder out in the paddock —

They spent all day in their shed but braved the weather to wait for their dinner —

And once fed, they all disappeared back into the shed!

'til next time,

happy stitches,

Raewyn
