Part of my backyard
This is part of my backyard. The bird feeder has been removed. We enjoyed having lorikeets visit us. But sadly the mice found the "free food" and we had to take it down. The two palm trees on the left are Washington cottons and the one on the right is a a Cocos Palm, which always seems to have dead fronds hanging about.. All the plants in that bed are now over 1 metre and grown into each other, there is also an umbrella tree, planted later. Our flowering gum tree is behind the bird feeder.
There is a bottlebrush in the back corner with a fruit-salad plant growing up through it. We have five fruit-salad plants altogether.

Wild animals
This is a wild animal quilt that I made some time ago. Children seem to like exotic animals. I have more fabric for another one but styled differently. I made two of these, similar but a little different. I gave them to twin boys.

Round robin
My grandson a few years ago. The quilt in the background is a Round-robin completed some years ago. l make all the cushion covers from blocks found in magazines or embroideries. My dog is keeping an eye on things. The space ship in the background is one of my husband's Lego models.

Tumbling blocks
I made this quilt nearly four years ago and sold it almost immediately. I have put aside the appropriate fabrics so I can make it again with batiks on a navy background but this time will rearrange the blocks.
