Only 1 more sleep until Leanne, Viv and I head off to Loxton in South Australia for a 3 day workshop. I really should be packing but thought I might play instead! Here is a photo of the project that I will be teaching
at Almond Grove Crafts. I am looking forward to 5 days of fun (I will probably need Tuesday off to recover!!)
I thought that it might be nice to have a bag giveaway to keep in with the bag theme, so leave a comment to win a copy of "Summer Romance Bag" and I will draw a winner next Wed, there are 3 copies to be won.(I really will need Tuesday off)
bye for now

Hi Gail. Your Summerbag is lovely, I do really loved it. I do love your stitchery designs too, they are so beautiful. Have a lovely weekend. Kari from Norway, who is waiting for the summerholiday – next week (c:
Hi Gail, as always your bags and patterns are lovely! The girls in Loxton sound like they are in for a great weekend- I hope you enjoy it! Don’t eat too much chocolate…
Looking forward to stitching with you again soon,
Love Nicky
VERY nice bags. If I might make a suggestions. The stitching always seems to be on very light fabric. Why not stitch on fabric (that is a little darker) that blends with the rest of the fabric.
Love the bag. Have fun teaching at Almond Grove Craft. Any plans to come to West Australia???
Hello, I am new to embroidery. I have just started classes and enjoying it. I am 14 and I think your bag is cool.

Have a nice weekend. I am just a bag lover and would love to win one
Hi, I have recently found your designs and I think they are so lovely. I like your colours. And last week I get your Angel’s sewing basket pattern from Moore Patchwork. Soon I will have my summer holiday and then I have time to start it. Have nice weekend!!! Satu
have just discovered your patterns & blogsite, have been looking for inspiration for a 50th birthday present and one of your bags or quilts would be perfect. Enjoy your stay away
Hi Gail, Hope you have a good time away with Leanne, I think she would be a hoot. Here is hoping dad can survive the boys. I think I would like to try a bag next after I finish putting your christmas quilt together this weekend. Have a nice weekend. Wendy
Hi Gail, Just wanted to say how much I enjoy your blog and seeing all your creativeness, I don’t think you’ve made a pattern yet that hasn’t been a “must have” for me! Wish you could come to England and do a “weekend” here!! Love your new bag design….another “must have”!!
What a lovely bag! I could sure use a summer romance bag, it’s been raining for weeks here in Sweden.
Maria Wadensten
Hi Gail, which comes first – the Summer Romance Bag or the Summer Romance? I think each would inspire the other! It’s a lovely bag. Caro
Gee how I’d like to win that cutie tote bag ! It’s adorable, as all things you’re making !
So please, Gail, throw my name in ! (cross my fingers…and toes! LOL)
THANKS !

Thanks Corinna
After making your fabulous bag in Loxton over the weekend I am hooked – what a great weekend – felt very lucky to spend it with such inspirational tutors and we were great students…Roxby girls rock!! …and it wasn’t chocolate that proved to be the over indulgence of the weekend – try shoes!!
Lorraine
