I participated in the challenge Hug & Kisses ... the first to post a photo of embroidery wins! .. We hope to have been fast enough ... I saw the contest this morning at 9:30, I started right away, but I had an appointment for lunch, so I had to stop at 12. I took the job status even at that hour, then return home, I made an 'other hour or so here I am! It was the competition for me, because I'm already faster than nature, then I now own course (and I must say that the accuracy has suffered somewhat ...). Damn, if I think that compared to Australia I lost six hours! Yes, because Helen's post went up at 3 o'clock tonight!

PS, thankyou for all your thoughts for Penola – buildings, houses, even businesses can be rebuilt, lives cannot – so there are many in the world worse off and we all acknowledge and appreciate that…and we must always remember that, get back up and get on with life as best we can.

















Congratulations to Pepe on her speedy needlework!
A lovely pattern.

You-huuu! I'm so happy!!! I can't believe I won, I'm not used to win... I think it passed about 20 years from the last time!
I'm so excited for the choose... I love your patterns!
Yes, of course, google translations is not so careful and don't take away the job to the interpreters! Unfortunately my English is not so good to allow me to translate by myself in the best way, but I can explain something: I think "Damn" in English is a bit too strong for a lady (who teaches to teenagers, what's more!), instead of Italian language, where is very soft... :-).
"Sono veloce di natura" means "I'm quite fast by nature"...
Now I take my time to look at patterns and choose and send you a mail and dream... Tankyou a lot!Also for the blog link!
Pepe
P.S. For Penola, if you want to organize something to help, for example by our quilting projects, I will participate!
