Good Morning It is very overcast today, so we may receive some rain. It is very dry here at Middlemount and some rain would be welcome. We don’t seem to receive much rain here during winter. This last week has been quite mild as far as temperatures go but the colder temperatures are just around the corner again. I intend to make some more Seville Orange Marmalade today and tomorrow and they will be the last batches for this year. Also hope to start sewing Busy Beez, a little swing top with shorts. It is in Issue 78 of Australian Smocking & Embroidery. The smocking which is a very simple design, is finished and the outfit is very cute IMHO. The rose garden needs weeding too, so I am going to have a very full weekend. Hope you all have a great weekend Cheers Lexie_________________
