So Many New Things.

 Yesterday we had our old computer updated to be able to run Windows 11. I am so glad I have always kept a hard copy notebook ( plunket book! for NZ readers. ) with all the computer up grades , passwords , and "how to do " in it.

 3 weeks ago I had to buy a new mobile  so I could use the G4 and G5 network. ( my old phone was 10 years old-an expensive one when I got it and I had looked after it )

 We no longer have a landline as all we were getting were scam calls.

 Mostly I find if I don't know how to do something on the computer or my phone I google it and get lots of answers.

 I don't want to be a luddite so I am practicing all the new stuff and trying to help R do the same.

 I think Ill go out to the garden now....I now how to do that without further training!

Flowers with 3 Petals.

 I've been picking flowers from the garden that have 3 outer petals.

 Dutch iris, Bearded Iris and New Zealand Libertia.

 I haven't done much sewing at all but my Grandsons have.They have both made small quilts and pillow cases  under my guidance and achieved very  well. 

Aged 9 Grandson did every part of this except the border which I put on.

He made 2 pillow cases also in green.

 Aged just 7 Grandson made this cushion and a small quilt and pillow case.

 Both confidently use the Bernina and know( about safety ) and stitch length, starting and finishing. Also zigzag and straight row  quilting with the walking foot. They also can cut carefully with the rotary cutter. Lots of measuring involved too.

They are back to school today.
