No Place like home...

School holidays are coming to a close for me...unfortunately I have been under the weather for all of the holidays...what started as a cough...progressively got worse..I have had the test for Whooping Cough....test results came back negative so another course of antibiotics and special cough mixture is slowly making me better.
See you all soon for my next installment of 'Mums A Gardener's Journal Quilt'....
