A well overdue post. I need to remind myself that I am still here!!!!
To bring you up to date -
We met Susan at Woolarium and then introduced her to some of the shops on our patch, GJ's and Cutting Cloth. Of course, coffee and lunch were a given.
Susan came with gifts. I received this beautiful little pin cushion that I immediately adopted Now it is never far away if I am stitching.
I have been collecting fabrics for Susan and gave them to her in this little bag, that I made from a tutorial at S.O.T.A.K. Handmade . I added a little rabbit spoon that I found in my travels.
Last week end we drove to Gisborne for our bloggers meet.
Loved catching up with all the girls again.
Loved catching up with all the girls again.
Marg showed us her beautiful A Paradise of Birds quilt designed by Irene Blanck.
It was only a small group this time, but the swap gifts were of the highest quality as usual. The theme was a sewing tin or sewing compendium.
I showed off my new "girlie" quilt made for me by my sewing buddies to celebrate a special birthday.

Hoping to dive into some serious sewing and knitting. It has been too long between stitches.
