Here in Australia it is Week 2 of our virtual lockdown and I guess a lot of my blog friends are in a similar situation. One of my goals during this season is to use up some of the things I already have in the house before I buy.
A cleanup of the bathroom cabinet discovered that I don't need to add shampoo and conditioner to the shopping list. Over the years when hubby and I did a fair bit of travel, we collected quite a few of these:
Then I checked whether I needed to buy some shower gel and hand cream as the ones I was using were getting low. I had forgotten I had received the lovely Red Door items for Christmas and found I had a bit of a stash in the back of the cabinet as well.
When I turned my attention to our freezers in an effort to use up some of the leftovers and bits and pieces, this one needed some defrosting before I could get in to have a look at what was there!
I am really enjoying having the time to do jobs like this which kept getting put off to another day.
A search in the garage for something came up trumps when I happened to glance in a crate with gear we used to take when travelling - a roll of toilet paper - like gold here as there is still none in the supermarkets!
I've been so busy keeping in touch with friends, family and our Church congregation that I have hardly had time to do any stitching!
I have started the
but it is coming along slowly.
Block 4 of the Block of the Month Quilt "More Precious than Jewels" will be available soon!
Stay safe and happy stitching!

Val, yes that toilet paper is like gold. LOL! Who would have thought 🙄 I am trying to have a plan for each day as I really don't like this self isolation as, at 71, I don't consider myself to be 'old'. Still, I guess we all need to get used to it for a while to go yet. We can only hope and pray that our families stay safe and healthy.
