here we are back at Friday again, another week gone, where does the time disappear to? I have finally finished "good tidings" in time for the trade show this weekend in Melbourne. So what do you think, now that you can see it all together?
I do like a stitchery in the border of quilts and I just had to have one here!
So……leave a comment over the weekend and I will draw 3 names to win a copy of the pattern…..that would be a lovely early Christmas present. You have until Tues morn (about 10am) and I will draw the winners. I will have recovered from the show by then I hope!! I am looking forward to meeting some lovely ladies especially those who have blogs…..so come up and say hi, I will be at the Creative Abundance stand with my good friends Leanne and Rosie and Melly.
Have a good weekend!!
Cheers
Gail xx
