Friday I was featured on Friday Friends over at Blue Mountain Daisy a first. Lots of fun thank you Rachael!
Saturday 2 quilts finished for Windsor Community Quilters. Both quilts were started by others and I rescued the blocks and incomplete top making comfy quilts.
The garden furniture quilt has pleased the maker of the blocks. I'm happy Fredia's happy.
A partially completed top from an unknown quilter. I button holed the row of applique on the right and added side and top borders. Nice to collaborate with a kindred spirit.
Sunday a special kind of shopping
Trunk Shopping a variation on shopping your stash. The trunk arrived in Australia 2 months after DH and I did holding all our worldly possessions.
A few samples to audition
Try again
Ah! more pop!
Sides cut and ready for assembling on Tuesday.
I'm getting tired and it isn't even Monday.
Monday no photos I took the camera to quilting to take pictures but had so much fun teaching some basic felting (for 5 hours) that i forgot to snap everyone having fun. Great night of skill sharing what a buzz.
Tuesday was Community quilts and some of us worked on tops using Dorthy's scrap strips.
The lay out of the greens was a completed top by mid afternoon. I stitched on all the edges and started on putting the rows together.
Wednesday featured some unpicking of a different type
Stitches removed and skin cancer all gone. To celebrate I stopped at Hobbysew
Eye candy is NOT fattening. Besides I have used 5 1/2 meters of fabric from the stash since Saturday and I only bought 6 20cm pieces. More celebrating DH and I went to the local Thai restaurant with a bottle of bubbly to toast the SALE of the two story house. Yeah!! the no more stairs journey is complete after 8 months.
Thursday to be continued.......

DH's jeans are never short enough 29" inseam. This pair went real well. phew!!
The corded neckpiece and a how to make felt sample are the sort of things we made on Monday.
