This week I received my Aussie Swap Blocks from Erin
and my gorgeous “Lets Celebrate” gifts from Clare.
Love the beautiful stitchery on my rug mug and the great bright Mug bag with it’s perfect button..
Thank you ladies…..
At our retreat we worked hard…….
ate lots of good food…
sew I had to go for a long walk….
I finished quilting my Bali Jelly Roll quilt. worked on some secret projects, sewed some bright blocks, pinned this “Star” quilt and started to quilt it.
Was pleased at what I got done at retreat and had a fabulous relaxing time with my friends.
A BIG thank to Linda for being my driver…….
Goodnight all Hugz Maria
you did get lots done! Love the fabric on those hexies! I can't wait to see what they become. Been stitching some hexie flowers along the road this week. I'll have to blog about them when I get home

Wouldn't have minded a stroll down that road with you... if it wasn't for snakes. I know for a fact you can't walk a yard without tripping over one in Aus! ;o)
