Sorry about this girls but it has been brought to my attention that there is a mistake in the reqs for Latte Blossom, the border fabric needs to be 75cm not 60cm…this is mainly for all you girls who participated in Cyber stitching……..sincere apologies if this has affected you…..must have been one of those days.
sorry!!

On Wednesday I received my PIF gift from Sandra, it is a gorgeous bag made from one of my favourite fabrics……chocolat….(still wondering how she made the bag with its twists and turns!) and also a fat quarter and a soooo cute little card. Thank you so much!!! a girl always needs a new bag!!!
So finally here are some photos of my project for Almond Grove Crafts in Loxton SA. Less than 4 weeks now and Leanne, Rosie, Viv and myself will be there for 3 days of fun and stitching. I have done a sewing set which includes a little bag, pincushion, needle and thread case and a scissor keep.
The school holidays are finally here and we can all take a breather!!! I think that all the kids were getting very tired as it was a long term. Hopefully this also means that I will get lots of work done…….maybe!
Rosie had a great day on Sunday at GlenHarrow for the launch of her new book “Gift”. It is a gorgeous book and she has done such a fantastic job!
until next time…
