At last!
I finished the binding of this quilt the last week of 2015.
It was a mystery quilt from 2013. For ten months you receive a block to finish.
The tenth month you put them together, quilt it and bind it.
Oumagrootjie het so ‘n laslappie bedryf gehad met ‘n lappie vir elke persoon wat in die konsentrasiekamp dood is. Sy het egter gesê hy moet saam met haar begrawe word “Sodat ek die Here kan wys hoekom ek die Egelse haat”

Ja, die laslapwerk van vroeër is nog alles met die hand gedoen ook. Toe ek begin het met kwilte het ek ook die kwiltwerk met die hand gedoen. Nou kry ek iemand om dit met die masjien te doen.

Doing a quilt is – even a small one – is on my list of things to do. There is such stunning fabric patterns available here – even if I don’t stitch perfectly, it would look pretty.

You are so skilful to have created such a beautiful thing – and extremely patient, too. It really is something to be proud of. The pattern and colour combination are gorgeous. Have you any plans as to where you might use it?

Thank you. I decided to lend it to our new bookshop which caters only for NZ writers! As decoration against the wall for a while! The one owner had a grandmother who had done many quilts and she is displaying them on the walls. I asked if she would like to put this one up also because it has all kiwiana material.
I should think it looks wonderful there. It’s so bright and colourful. You’re very artistic and creative person all round.

I am enjoying the weather! I think I need to put down a deadline for my Afrikaans book – end January- otherwise time just goes by with me doing nothing. My Flash fiction needs to go for proof reading now!

O dis pragtig! Ek was sopas twee weke lank in die mooie Nieu-Seeland en kon die “fantail” herken nadat ek dit in lewende lywe gesien het. Het nog nooit so baie gelukkige honde gesien soos daar in NS nie!

Dankie, fantail is n manhaftige klein meneertjie! Daar is gereeld een wat woerts-warts hier onder my afdak in duik as ek buite is. Jy vertel my nou eers van jou besoek! Waar was jy? Kon jou gebel en gehoor het hoe dit gaan! Die honde word hier soms beter as kindertjies versorg. Ouens is lief vir hul diere!
Dit het mooi gekom
