Last week started with a lovely surprise in the mail from Gail Pan. I won a magazine on her blog, featuring her very cute Christmas pattern.
Thank you Gail.
Then on Saturday the calendar was marked with "Millrose". So Anne, Robyn and I set off down the highway to the shop with the red awnings.
Lots of familiar faces greeted us, plus a couple of new ones.
The swap theme was Michelle Ridgway's designs and the gifts were of the highest quality as always.
Lots more photos can be seen on the Millrosie Friends page (check the blogs on the sidebar), plus photos of the show and tell.
The gifts were later laid out together so that we could all admire the beautiful handwork.
Of course we enjoyed a delicious lunch and we were priveleged to get a tour of the new retreat that is currently under construction. Photos can be seen here.
Back at home, another Laura's Legacy has arrived and I am now officially two behind, and I was doing so well with numbers 1 and 2!
