More socialising than sewing going on around here.
In late September we visited Linda's barn to see the " All About Chintz" exhibition.
We managed to convince Linda to join us for our annual photo.
Then the following week Marina invited us over for lunch.
This beautifully prepared table greeted us. The company was great with lots of laughter, the food wonderful and not a stitch was sewn.
Earlier this month we visited the North of the Yarra quilt show. This group always presents a wonderful exhibition, good shopping and a very delicious afternoon tea. We caught up with Mel and Christine who helped to organise the show and have lots of photos on their blogs.
We purchased the pattern for this little quilt, which is one of four, in the pattern called Cherry's Hall by the Max and Louise Pattern Co.
And what does every modern girl need - her own memory stick.
And as for the sewing,
there is always a star shining somewhere
and you are guaranteed that I am always playing with scraps.

Fabulous quilt and blocks! So much variety too. Are the Lemoyne stars hand pieced? Love the fabrics used.
Thanks so much for the tour...lucky you spending time with those lovely girls. Love your spool memory stick...so cute xx
Socialising and sewing seem to keep very close company. Lots of lovely adventures and purchases. I think I have become a scrappy woman too.
so much socialising! Shame we didn't get a group shot.
my sandwiches do look lovely though the table looks a little sparse lol

I'm realizing, as I look at the quilts you've shown, that in your part of the world, medallion quilts are very popular... much more so than here in the US. You've shared some gorgeous ones, with lots of intricate detail. So pretty!
All the quilts look wonderful . I really like the Cherry's Hall pattern.
Love your post, some amazing quilts there, and I love the new pattern you have. Your scrap playing look great too!
xx
