Well after my dramatic start this morning at sunrise watching the Full total eclipse on our veranda

Our eclipse was in the middle of this horizon this morning off our front terrace!!!!! Stormy clouds have gone sun has risen so it is not shinning directly in to my lens and it is a perfect day after watching an amazing full eclipse!!!!

sitting watching it in our chairs through welding masks!!!!we have ended up with a perfect day.

Now it is back to my normal Wednesday I hope. No beach as the city is full of thousands of tourist who have  flown in to watch the eclipse this morning.

Total Eclipse this morning at around 6.15am Sun is dead centre of this photo.

So may be I will go tomorrow when it has calmed down.

This morning I have my DS quilt laid out for a new piece of fabric to be added; I have two corners to repair!!!

Have to remove the pink fabric???

Pink silk fabric removed, you an see the last boarder now that I have unpicked the rolled edge I have done till I finish the quilting of this quilt. This is one of the reasons this fabric has pulled as DS has been using it for 7 years 365 days of the year with out the quilting been finished plus washing it once a year????? One other corner needs repair also.

This corner was repaired 3 years ago!!!!!

Update 1pm I so happy I found some more pink fabric similar but a crepe silk and it will wear better. Corner now repaired using my sewing machine on the seams. I will quilt it before doing any other projects. It is sandwiched with a tag tacker. One down two to go?????

I finally finished my Vienna quilt, I did an average of 3 1/2 hrs each day this week and added the last blanket stitches last night.

All applique now finish on my Vienna quilt!!!!!

Endless blanket stitching but I always enjoyed working on this quilt.

Recipient of this quilt grew up on a island near the Bahamas so LOVES colour; I have used contrasting threads through out to enhance the fabrics.

Waiting for it's final boarder before shipping to new owner?????
