Posh Holidays

We made the most of the summer break, returning from the coast yesterday to get ready for school today.  The girls call our annual trip to the Central Coast with my parents and sisters our "Posh Holiday" because we stay in apartments instead of camping.  The weather this year was variable, with a few spectacular days and a few more rainy days.  On one of the rainy days we ventured out to the local bowling alley, and had the most hilarious time.

Whenever it wasn't raining we went to the beach.

And had heaps of fun fishing and scootering.

And of course rainy days meant time for craftiness.

This is A1's pillowcase using the tulip print from the Bonnie and Camille Bliss fabric.  I managed to finish three pillowcases- I did take photos of the other two, but the images didn't turn out well because of the weather.  I also sewed the binding down on Sister 4's long overdue birthday quilt, and finished books 2 and 3 in the Songs of Ice and Fire series- so it was quite a productive holiday.  Next post will show Sister 4's finished birthday quilt.
