Lots of little Squares

I am still working on my "Natures Journey" quilt by Anni Downs. I have to sew 46 squares on point with needle turn. Done a third of it so far.....I am off to find a good movie...

Our little Darling is growing up so fast, different every day. She is 2 now.

Always the actor.

Loves camping and hot dogs.

She just loves swimming . And she is so like her dad at the same age in this photo.

She also loves holidays at Frazer Island QLD.

Stitchers Dream Day Out

Last weekend myself, Gail, Jo and Margie S went to "Stitchers Dream day Out at High Fields" in Toowoomba.

Quilters Angel Patchwork store runs this event every year. I love it ..lots of friendly ladies all there to stitch . A little like Nundle people from everywhere. Michelle and Jan have shared our table before . Michelle is from Mt Isa. Jan her mum. was from Brisbane. I met two ladies from Atherton Nth Queensland who knew my brother in law, small world. The other two ladies at our table actually lived in our area... amazing... thats what I love about stitchers and patchworkers we all seem to have so much in common.

Susan http://susans-sewing-space.blogspot.com.au/ and Marilyn were there too it was a great day. the designers were Bronwyn Hayes from "Red Brolly" and Julie Lovell from "Calico Farm". the projects were lovely.

The store gives the designers some fabric and the designers have to make a new project or as many projects as they like using the fabric provided. The designers then release the patterns following the stitching day.

These are who and what we had to work with ...
