The Wallys venture south!

Last weekend was a fun one for our family. Since our move to Tassie we haven't ventured past Launceston and we'd been planning a trip to Hobart for sometime now. A great opportunity came up on Sat when we scored an absolute bargain on an overlocker from ebay. It was a pick-up from Howrah so we packed the three girls in the car early Saturday morning and headed off.

The scenery was amazing and the girls were so well behaved that it was such a fun trip all round.

After we'd picked up my new baby we grabbed some lunch and found a fabulous park just perfect for toddlers. After having a grand time there we took the girls for a walk along the beach and collected shells, pinecones and crab claws. On the way home we bought some cherries and apricots from a stall on the side of the road. So delicious!!

The only downside was that someone forgot to charge the camera and so we don't have any pics so I guess that means we'll just have to do it all over again sometime soon!

I do have a picture however of some of what I've been able to sew up now I have an overlocker again......6 pairs of leggings, 3 tiered skirts, 2 petticoats and a pair of cotton pants! Most of these are for our trip to Sydney. From what I've heard it's pretty hot up there and we're still in long sleeves and jeans down here so we needed some cooler things.

I've also added a picture of some little hair clips I've been making lately. They are metal alligator clips covered with grosgrain ribbon using a hot glue gun. A little fiddley and sometimes ouchy but the result is pretty cute!

I'll be seeing you after our trip!
