cream and brown wip

Not bad considering the several interruptions – 36 squares added to the total makes this the handquilting halfway mark. But it’s book club this morning, and that will take up to lunchtime, so it will be afternoon before I am quilting today – but on the other hand, DH is away for the night, so there will be more time without interruption later, too. I have just read Alexandra Fuller’s “Let’s Not Go to the Dogs Tonight” A white African childhood coloured by the alcoholic mother – a dysfunctional family in the turmoil of history – sounds terrible but is fascinating and really well written without maudlin longing for a doomed way of life – that of white farmers in black Africa.

    I read “Let’s Not go to the Dogs Tonight” last year and was fascinated by this look at a life so different from mine.
    I’m enjoying your blog and your work. Thanks for sharing.
