Nikau Palms.

 Berries on our Nikau Palms . ( Rhopalostylis sapida )  I have yet to see a Keruru ( NZ native wood pigeon ) eating them but they do look tempting.

 At P and Q yesterday several ladies had finished charity quilts to give away.
 I have started mine but it will not get finished till we have a UFO weekend in a fortnight.
 My friend D had finished these 2 attractive table runners.
 Another friend N had almost finished this  garden quilt  that she is going to give to the gardener of our recently passed away member M. It is made mainly with some of M's fabric. So that is a nice gesture.
 It is made from a set of 6 panels. The other 2 are on the back.

Very lovely. I'd never heard of... can't remember the name, but that palm tree. Yes, it's nearly 5 years since we met and so Nicky is nearly 5. Can't believe it! And yes, we're awaiting the arrival at the end of the month of Peter and Amy's first baby (daughter), our third grandchild. And we're only 35... aren't we??
