Anzac Day 2012

Today I had the honour of watching my son and many others march in the Anzac Day Parade.  Whilst watching the parade, there were many fine moments, from the elderly diggers waving at the young children looking on in awe, or the ones who weren't afraid to show the tears in their eyes as they recognised loved ones in the crowd.

It was beautiful to see the diggers from the past ...


 To those currently representing our country  ...


and to the cadets of today ... my boy!

Pattern of the week

As mentioned previously - my beading group has a challenge in progress.  The theme being Art Deco.  I love spending time playing with the pattern programs - it is satisfying to see a picture transposed to a pattern which will in turn be created into a fabulous design.

This is the latest pattern that I have created, it is titled 1920's vogue!  I can't wait to see the pics of this one!
