Back from Cairns

WOW!!!! What an adventure we have had in Cairns!! Rosie, Leanne and myself flew up to Cairns on Friday and have had the best time with the Kate & Colleen from Buttontree Quilts at their first weekend workshop. The workshop was at a beautiful property in the Atherton Tablelands and was just the perfect setting for a weekend of sewing, laughing, eating (very yummy food!!) and meeting lots of fantastic ladies.

here are some of the ladies working……

Colleen, Andrea and Gail……this is just outside the venue……and the view from the verandah is to die for!!!

we had glorious weather…….and a sensational sunrise (thank you Leanne for waking me at 6.30am so I wouldn't miss it!!!)

we also had a little bit of Carins rain (well we were in the tropical north!!) but it was still warm (a lot warmer that Melbourne!!!)

Here are Kate and Deb, looking after the shop…lots of yummy fabric there!!

We had a fabulous time and so did all the lovely ladies we met…….Kate and Colleen absolutely thought of everything!!! and thanks also to all the willing helpers who made sure it was such a success.

It was also amazing to see lots of different flowers up in far north Queensland……

this is one of my favourites (not sure of the name)

and look at this amazing jade flower!!!

A big THANKS to Kate and Colleen for a wonderful adventure!!!

Now back to reality!!!

Cheers
Gail
