Well what a week it has been in our beautiful Australia. We have had bushfires in Western Australia, the worst cyclone ever in Queensland, Sydney is having a massive hot spell and here in my little part of Victoria we have experienced humid tropical weather, followed by two days of non stop rain caused by the cyclone in Queensland! At least, after all that rain, it is much more pleasant today.
I still have a couple more little bits to do on Swan Lake but I have also done a bit of work on Irish Circles.
These are the two latest blocks completed. The second one is my favourite block.
These are the final hexagons for Swan Lake. They are all sewn onto the quilt now.
I was also a very lucky girl to receive these beautiful charms from a friend.
This is on the back of the "Silly" charm - don't you just love it!!!
And here is a "Hello" from Milo.

I just stumbled onto your blog. Love it!! Your projects are wonderful. I've never heard of Swan Lake before, but it's very beautiful.
You ends the post with a very cute Milo! Yeah can't agree more. What a week indeed. Glad to hear you are not flooded. The rain did cleared up the humidity that was a relieved. I hope we will have a break for a bit now. You must be pleased with yourself at the end of Swan Lake. It's beautiful - Hugs Nat
Another wonderful quilt to keep you busy, love the soft palette.
Milo looks like he needs a cuddle !!
I love everything in this post. Swan Lake looks beautiful and little Milo is so cute.
Swan Lake is going to be so beautiful Sue-Anne..
What a few weeks we have had..we sure could use some of your rain, a dear friend just rang to say they had to evacuate as deliberate lit bush fires threaten their home..
oh sew beautiful again! love all the sewing and the charms! aren't they a great way to capture sayings and words, i have quite a collection myself. is 'irish circles' a pattern from 'stonleigh'? i would like to get a copy!
I can't believe you got all those hexies onto Swan Lake. That's amazing! You really have burned through that complicated quilt at light speed. The Irish Circles blocks are amazing. I'm not sure what they're going on; you probably blogged about it but my memory is awful.
Happy stitching,
Susan in Texas

Milo's photo is adorable!
I love your Irish Circle blocks! Wow! They look so good together and is going to be smashing!!!
I love the Irish Circle Quilt. You know it is a take on the Jane Pizar Quilt that is in our local museum. I have a architect friend who has blown the original postcard up for me so I can start drafting it. The original has far more detail in the centre than yours. Is your the Karen Cunningham one?
Yours look fab!
what a fun post full of great things. I love your irish circles and swan lake is looking great.
What cute charms!
There is temptation all over, and you blog has another, Irish circles. They are lovely! And I may have to find that pattern also. Oh so little time!
Your work is all looking gorgeous! Love the circles especially. We in blogland are horrified at all the nasty weather you've been struck with this year. I hope that you've seen the last of the bad, and have lovely skies from now on. Michele
Very nice Sue-Anne! Beautiful colours and how nice to be finishing up Swan Lake, such a beauty! And, hello sweet little Milo!
Your favourite is definitely my favourite as well!! Love the "silly" charm hihi!!! Great hexagonflowers! Have a happy sewing day, hugs, Daniëlle
I love the gorgeous colours you are putting together...
The silly charm is a good way to live. Your applique is intriguing, it's going to be stunning when finished.
Give Milo a chin scratch.
As always, beautiful stitching. Love your fabric choices.

The points on that Irish Circles block are so completely perfect! It looks amazing. I'm in awe of your wonderful applique work as well. So fun to look at such well done work!
