we all know the saying……where has the week gone! I spent a lovely morning (well it did end up stretching into the afternoon) last Thursday with Vikki and Simone chatting and doing some needleturn applique, mostly chatting, not much applique!!
I also went up to Belgrave to put Liam on Puffing Billy with my mum, dad, sister, nephew and relatives from the UK, we met them at Emerald Lake Park and then enjoyed lunch at the Emerald Bakery….divine!! Liam has never been on the train and we live 10 mins away! I suppose being the youngest he missed out, but that was soon fixed when mum said they were going.
Also wanted to let you know that my local shop Foothills is having a sale this week, so if you can, enjoy a drive up to the hills and check them out!
Sarah is having a sale too, Quilt Fabric Delights is online so over you go!!
I will probably be in trouble for putting this on my blog but I needed a photo and this is a good one! It also makes me smile as Laila and I have become great friends after meeting in Norway at Quiltegaarden in 2009.
Laila has made a gorgeous version of winter blooms you can see it on her blog.
that's all for now!
Cheers
Gail
Gail, It sounds like you had a wonderful time. I’ve been reading a bit about Puffing Billy, so much fun! I’m wishing I lived close enough to hit the sale at Foothills…ahhhh, there is nothing like a sale at a favorite quilt shop is there? So, since I can’t wander through there, I guess I’ll just pop over to Quilt Fabric Delights and see if I can damage my wallet there, LOL. Probably not, but it doesn’t hurt to look and wish and dream does it? I’ll probably drool a little while I’m there too but I have a napkin handy just in case. Big Hugs…
I miss the laughter and fun we had that weekend! So thankful to have you as a friend, and I’m so glad we are able to keep in touch even if we live so far away from each other. The world is getting smaller with internet, and I’m glad it is!
Hope you are enjoying your week, and hope it will be a creative weekend too ;o)
Hugs,
