GDITC

Girls Day In The Country is on once again...tomorrow we are heading off for four days to Nundle to visit Kerry at "Cottage On The Hill"...she has guest tutors Rosalie Quinlan and Leanne Beasley, now how awesome is that.....this is a group photo of a few of us "bloggers' who had met for the first time last year, unfortunately a couple could not make it this year, but this year our little band of happy bloggers has grown......for the past two weeks we have been doing a countdown of sleeps...(how old are we)...and during this time I can say we have exchanged several hundred emails....other than not ever having met some of these ladies it is like we have know each other for years...I hope to have lots of photos next week to share....so I hope you all keep safe ...

Treats



Treats in the post..I know I didn't really need these fabrics, but they were so cheap I just had to buy them, they are just so rich, of all the gorgeous fabrics that are around, I am still really drawn to all the dark earthy tones....we are having a little rain today which is just so nice...enjoy your day.

Tilda......done




I have completed the Tilda Stitchery given to me by Lise ...I have used a variegated thread and I must admit I am very pleased with it.....I have just received this jelly roll and I think this will be perfect fabric to use with this stitchery ...the fabric is Candy Kisses by Sandy Gervais for Moda Fabrics...not sure yet what I am going to make...any suggestions???
