Fabulous weekend day two

Breakfast on the Murray river with Ange and Kylie.

Yummy : Pick Me Up Breaky Burger (egg, bacon, pesto sauce, jarls berg cheese, chutney)
Coffee.
The birdhouse is in the garden. Looks great!

Great start to the morning.

Quick trip to Aldi and then the drive to Nyah!

Surprise surprise Michelle (daisy hill quilts. blogspot.com.au)
I came to see you before you head up north to Darwin. I had been teasing Michelle and saying I wouldn't see her she had no idea. Even with all my travel details. The look in her face was priceless!

Had a fantastic day sewing with the girls. Kylie, Ange, Nat, Di, Heather, Jeanette and Nat. I finished my blocks. I also got a stash of fabric and patterns that Michelle was giving away.

I am pleased I went to see Michelle and the girls.

Fabulous weekend Day One

Saturday I travelled over to Swan Hill.
I spent the day shopping.

Had lunch at Spoons restaurant (see the yummy sandwich below)

Checked in to Murray Downs resort for the evening. Two bedroom apartment. Fantastic.

Back to room for an evening if sewing. (Progress shown below. All done last night!)

Kylie came and shared the evening with us. Kylie blog is called Addicted to Quilting.

Exhausted and headed to bed for a good nights sleeps.

Productive Saturday

After having a very busy week at work I was able to spend some time relaxing at home today.
The day began with a Maccas run at 5.45am to drop Candice to work.

I came home had a coffee, slept a little then at 7.30am I fired up the lawnmower.  Yes it was early but the neighbours I have are not quiet on week nights so I just though they wouldn't mind an early wake up call.  They often provide us with entertainment until midnight during the week!

After mowing Bridie and I went down town for breakfast, we picked up Talia and went to get Talia some shoes for the deb ball, spent a huge $8.00 on some sandals. (bargain)

We also hired some movies from the video shop and then went out to the Condobolin turn off to buy some huge peaches... mmm these are the best.

So while we were watching Footloose I managed to complete my star and add some background pieces just to see how they went together.  I like how it is looking.

I then thought I would cut out my final borders for my Tis the Season quilt.  This quilt was part of a stitch-a-long, which I was not involved in but I loved the quilt just the same.  I am expecting a visit from Wanda tomorrow so I am hoping she will help me with quilting ideas.

Here is the completed quilt top...  the little legs behind belong to Bridie.  Will take a closer picture when it is all complete.

I am going to work on my Truly Scrumptious block tonight as I watch 'whatever' is on TV tonight.

Enjoy the remaining day/s of your weekend...

Until next time.. happy stitching..
