Arrived in Perth last Thursday and spent a few hours with my little sis and then on to my retreat…
On Friday it was a pleasure to met up with two of my blogger friends Anthea and Julia..
First we went to Rockingham Quilt Show. There were some beautiful quilt to see. Then on to the Dome to chat over coffee and lunch… Sew nice to catch up with the girls.. Hope to see them again soon.
Saturday Night at Retreat it was Fancy Dress. We had to wear something from any “Elvis” Movie.. It’s always a good laugh…
Just a few of us.. There were lots of great get ups.. May get a photo to post later...
I did manage some sewing too …
re- made “Gerda”
machine appliqued the "Kegworths" on my new "Baby" machine..
Put together some HST for a Tiny Quilt… only 14"..
Six more Scrappy Round the World blocks
and made a good start on this quilt….
I came home to some beautiful mail….
Two great Blocks from Coral for the Aussie Block Swap
the last Chateau Hexagon BOM stitchery and two Jelly Rolls..
Now I need to choose which one to use for our Jelly Roll Work Shop on the weekend….
Oh! and a reminder to go over to Cheryll's Blog tomorrow to sign up for FnwFs......
