I am so incredibly late to the party, but I finally made it! My mum has The Testaments lined up ready for me when I’m finished here. This will be news to nobody, but Atwood is a master storyteller. I gave up on the TV series in the second season because it felt too depressing, but it seems I read depressive content much better than I watch it, because I’m loving this book! . . . #handmaidstale #atwood #bookworm #testaments #abbysbooklist #betterlatethannever

Many times over the years I’ve tried to move away from the bright colours, and in to more ‘grown up’ muted neutral palettes, but it never lasts long. I love a splash of colour. Thankfully Matt’s mostly on board, though he did talk me down from buying a pair of second hand bright yellow dining chairs last week, so I’ve still got some more work to do there. . Attempting to complete the king size quilt cover I started working on last December and wondering how long it’s going to take to hand stitch all that binding 😬 I watched four Disney movies in a row while handstitching the binding on a cot quilt once. I wonder if my Disney collection is extensive enough to get me through a King size quilt?! . . . #quilting #sewing #rainbows #allthecolours #abbymakesstuff

School holidays are almost over, and we’ve had a fabulous time cramming in as much as possible, but boy am I ready for normal routines again next week! Squeezed a little ‘Me time’ into my day this morning with a walk, and looking forward to working more of this into the regular routine. We’re ready for you term 4!

Miss 5 and I went to @agsa.adelaide for an art class today, which she absolutely loved, but what I loved was the crochet kit vending machine!! . . . #agsa #artgallery #crochet #crochetlove

Girls day with Miss 5. Library -> Beach -> Donuts 👌🏼 . . . #semaphore #beach #books #bookworm #normalpeople #abbysbooklist

Some nice big logs have made it into the kids nature play area. Now to figure out what I’m planting in here 🤔 . . . #backyard #natureplay #play #thelittlebluecubbyhouse

Teepees, snowpeas and little people really are a match made in heaven. We have an amazing cubby house, sandpit and water play area in our backyard, but this is their first port of call every time they head into the backyard ❤️ It’s a helluva lot cheaper than bought kids play things too. This teepee is made of free salvaged pieces of wood, but you could use old curtain rods, or anything long and straight. We arranged them in a teepee shape, and then I tied them together with some old T-shirt’s cut into strips. I used the same t-shirt strips to create all the ‘rungs’ and then planted $3 worth of snow peas seeds. So it was pretty cheap! Now that Spring is here, I’ve planted cucumber seedlings on the other side to start growing up and over it 🌱 . . . #veggiegarden #teepee #kidsbackyards #natureplay #reducereuserecycle #growyourown #abbygrowsstuff

New dishcloths heading out into the world 😊 Fancy packaging as always with recycled newspaper and reused cardboard boxes! . . . #reducereuserecycle #etsy #etsyau #ecofriendly #abbysewell #abbymakesstuff

I guess I’m cooking up chard and broad beans today! . . . #veggiegarden #chard #broadbeans #growyourown #abbygrowsstuff
