Big Birthday

...I am the old girl in the middle.....
..... My hand stitched quilt with 1006 pieces.....

.....My cake.....can you guess how many cakes ?.....
....BOO HOO....
I have had a big birthday since I spoke to you all last.. that's my excuse for not writing as I am getting old and slowing down....lol.
I had the best birthday ever though I have to say.
I celebrated it at my favourite French restaurant in Geelong called Le Parisien with my family and a few close friends.
Company, cards and gifts to remember my day forever.
The weather was perfect, my cake divine and a hand stitched quilt from my beautiful little sister, 1006 pieces she has written on the label on the back of the quilt to remind me "how much she loves me" she said....lol.
...It was the best...

My New Design

..... A section of my new bed topper.....

Hi everyone.

Hope this post finds you all well and stitching madly.

It's raining here today, what a beautiful sight it is when you haven't seen rain for as long as we have.......even the garden is smiling.

Here is a small section of my new project, it's a painted and stitched panel for a queen bed topper or runner whichever you like to call it, I haven't completed the patchwork part of it yet as I haven't found the right fabric BUT when I do you will be the first one to view it.

Let me know what you think of the panel so far please.

Have a good one.

Cheers

All My Santa's Quilt

Here is a photo of my latest quilt pattern.

I called it "All My Santa's" as the different Santa's I have designed over the years modelled for my quilt panel.

The name of the Santa's in the quilt are

Santa & His Snowmen,

Santa & Moosey,

Santa's Gifts,

Santa & Snowie.

I had so much fun painting and stitching the panel BUT I nearlly ran out of time to complete it for the AQM....so I called on my beautiful little sister Marg to help me with the applique blocks.....lol...in the end she completed three quarter of the blocks for me....so a big thank you to her xxx

A dear Friend of mine picked it up on the Monday afternoon and had it back to me Tuesday night quilted......a job well done...thanks ...

So as you can just see in the picture below it made it to the fair...

Workshops

My Stand at the AQM.

I have been busy busy busy!!!!!

I have been to Bendigo, Warrnambool & over to Tassie in the last month tutoring. What a ball I have had meeting with the most lovely ladies, I am very lucky to be able to do what I do.

I had my dear friend Paul that I told you about that I had lost contact with down on holidays for a week....we had a wonderful time catching up and will see him again when we head to Sydney for a few days over Christmas.

I had the AQM (Australian Wholesale Quilt Market ) 2 weeks ago in Melbourne. I will add a picture of my stand. You will have to let me know what you think of it...loll.. It was my first time on my own there sooooooo I was a little nervous BUT all went well, catching up with shop owners and other tutors I have had the pleasure teaching for and teaching with.

Off to Bendigo again this Friday to teach my latest Santa then back to Warrnambool for a painting fabric class...the last for the year.

Is anyone out there organised for Christmas yet ?... I can assure you I'm not...loll

Cheers for now I better get to bed....hope you have all been well.
