morning ladies 
It's freezing here too but not as cold as further down the line. I see the Desert Rd and the Napier-Taupo Highway are both closed.
Mica, there are a few of the ladies in the NZ Quilting FB page going to the symposium. It sounds wonderful and I hope they post lots of photos for those of us who can't go. I live vicariously through that group lol.
Yesterday I went to our local book fair. It's been ages (or it feels that way lol) since we have had one. Lockdowns really put a damper on these things.
I bought eight books for $21 
less than the price of one new book. And they all look like they have never been read. MrK is happy, I found a Wilbour Smith book and a couple of David Baldacci books he hasn't read. I also found a Game of Thrones book to replace one I'm missing and an embroidery book I suspect was mine that was donated a last time round. I have always regretted donating that book so pleased it has found its way back to me.
They had on the news last night the car accident that closed part of SH1 near Cambridge. It's an S bend but if people would just slow down and not cut the corner, we would all be safer.
The suns out, I might have another go at moving the clay around the fence posts later. I put some on the compost bin yesterday and MrK is hoping it will break down to make lovely soil. We do need clay, but not as much as this.
Happy crafting
