Better late than Never
Finally found a bit of time to have my Show and Tell from the Adelaide Craft and Quilt Show recently held in Adelaide.............below are my purchases
Pre - ironed on pattern of hearts ready for stitching
Christmas Pattern - by Nikki Tervo
Bit of fabric to finish off a quilt started few months ago
and from my favourite shop Jane - The Patchwork Apple
a kit - needle case
Beautiful fabric - with trains over it in the most unusual green and blue colourings
hope to make a bag from this fabric for a friend of my YS who is expecting a baby boy later this month
finally a group picture (lol)

Mollie is back
Finally found Mollie .......Mollie was found at the bottom of another bag.......I swapped bags when I went to Adelaide Last weekend and only swapped back tonight ........DH was not game enough to comment ...as I felt silly enough that I could not remember where Mollie was.
So I thought I would have a show and tell ............Miss Audrey came back a few days ago and I have had the binding on for a few days but because Mollie did not what to come out and play I was not able to have a show and tell until now. My lovely quilting Guru Liz from Loxton has once again excelled. Unfortunately the photos do not give Liz's fab work justice.
Flipped the back over a little to show the backing fabric
Bit of the guru work .....the machine quilting is absolutely fabulous
The quilt is to big to photograph it all
(fits on the Queen Size bed and three sides just sit nicely on the floor)
Back later with a show and tell ........

Red and Cream
Well the day started early .......DH woke up this morning, not being able to stand up as the room and surroundings where moving all around, added with vomiting and shaking.........so hence a visited to the local medical clinic where it seem we wait for hours........but it was about half an hour them of the the local pharmacy to get some medication.
So I have had a very quiet day DH in bed all day. YS off playing cricket .........so I spend the day sewing .
Remember this from yesterdays blog well .............it is now a pieced top ready to be quilted ( not for a while a bit tired)
I used the pattern Helen Stubbings had created for the Gathering in the hills (Lobethal) a few weeks ago ..Organised by Jane from Patchwork Apple
The quilt does sit flat just as I was taking the photo a breeze lifted it
