Workshop with Sandy from "Shiralee stitches"

Thursday afternoon Chooky arrived in Goondiwindi. Friday lunchtime Sandy (Shiralee Stitches) drove on in and Friday evening Fairy Girl ( Chooky's daughter) and Mr Bird arrived home and so we were all with the "bird on the border." in her little nest...

Lunching by the pool

Does she ever stop stitching ?? Oops what that on her head??

A magical weekend

A weekend away on retreat with friends is always great but add a touch of snow and it's magical. 

A weekend at Kerry Swain's cottage on the Hill. 

 I chose some  beautiful Kaffe Fassett fabrics to make a more modern quilt than what is usual for me but I enjoyed it a lot.

Courtesy of some kids earlier in the morning ... cute
