A perfect week!!!!

My husband has the week off work and has taken over the cooking, school drop offs/pickups etc- YEAH!!!  So I have plenty of time to quilt and get out walking.  So far the weather has been kind for the walking and I am almost finished piecing together my Sue Ross block of the month from Material Obsession - I did not like the appliqued centre block they provided so have gone with the hexagons in the picture..  I need to clear the decks as I prepare for the arrival of my next project!!!!

Don't Look Now Workshop

In the weekend I attended the above workshop organised by Corrie from Retromummy.  Two days at a fantastic venue in Cammeray was so relaxing and I have learnt so much.  I am a complete beginner at machine applique/quilting but I really could see the I could get a good result with practice.....  Kelly was such fun with great stories, full of information to help and just great company.  I spent the weekend sitting with some lovely ladies and just felt relaxed the whole time. Dinner on Saturday night at Papaya (Thai) was yum as usual and I was fascinated by the ladies and their great blogs - enough so I am actually posting on mine.  Thanks Corrie, Kelly and ladies for a wonderful weekend.  Photos are courtesy of Retromummy.. Thank you....
