Birthday celebrations

Well, I am still working on my WIPs...but this week it was my birthday, which meant I spent time over the weekend catching up with lovely friends, eating good food and drinking great wine, and also made some time to experiment a bit more with my camera at the zoo, and do a little knitting. It was wonderful. I have a Zoo Friend membership, which means I can go to the major zoos in Australia as many times as I want for 12 months. This is great, as one of my passions is photography, and I am really trying to increase my photography skills, and a zoo is a wonderful place to practice! Incidently, the Adelaide Zoo shares it's birthday with me (although the zoo is celebrating it's 130th Bday and I am obviously not nearly that ancient)! Here are a few photos from my birthday weekend.

Drowning in WIPs...

Again another month has passed and I don't have any completed projects to show for it! Beginning to feel like I'm drowning in projects that are stuck as "work in progress" at the moment. I think it's partly because most of the projects I have on the go at the moment are quite big projects, so the little amount of time I have spare for craft at the moment seems to make little visible progress as I jump back and forth between knitting my Purl Bee inspired blanket, quilting my queen-sized quilt, knitting my first socks, crocheting a bed-blanket etc! I decided this afternoon I need to at least focus on one project and get it finished so I don't feel so overwhelmed with lack of progress. So I am focusing on my wildflowers infinity scarf as that is probably the project that will be easiest to finish and I should be able to work on it a little bit each night after work until it is done.
So if anyone is following this blog, hopefully I will soon have some finished craft projects to post about soon :-)
