It's been a busy month, my knee is just about totally healed now, so I'm able to go for decent walks and sleep comfortably. I still haven't tried a proper hiking track yet though,
The Scout and I went out to the beach at Orere point and enjoyed a beautiful walk, with a stop off at Waitawa Regional Park looking out over the stunning inner Hauraki Gulf. It was warm enough that we should have taken swimming gear with us.
I've been sewing - some beautiful new cushions for my sofa with some gorgeous Designer Guild fabric offcuts and a deep inky linen blend bias cut skirt. The pattern is the Clo Bias Skirt from Soften Studio, and its a very comfortable easy to wear and make skirt with an elastic waist and drawstring. I think there will be more of these added to my wardrobe.
Finally after about 25 years living in Auckland, I had my first visit out to Muriwai beach on the West Coast. Famous for it black sands and surf. We walked, ate well, slept and read, a just enjoyed a lovely relaxing weekend away.
Hi Julie, looks like you had a busy and restful April. You will be pleased your knee is on the mend. What beautiful places you have visited, what is the place with the art on pillars??
