Saturday there is a Big Easter Markets in the morning and our Patch group always Raffle a quilt there and monies raised go to a charity.. I just wasn't organised and didn't get any photos.
In the afternoon the horse races are on but for me it was time to go home relax and sew....
I put the first eight blocks of Lynette Anderson's Seaside Town BOM together.
and traced the next block...
For Easter Sunday the Community Resource Center ( with lots of help from many ) organise a Monster Easter Hunt starting in the Town Park..
This year my DD1 come up to look after her GC, Miss 7 and Miss 5 while their Mum ( my GD )was in hospital. Sew my GDIL come with Master 4 and Master 15mths to join in for the hunt....
Nice to have all four Great Grandies together....
With hand bands on we are ready to set off .
Off we go !!
Down by the river
Hunting for the tokens....
THEN ! Miss 5 went missing........Panic ! calling her and then it was off in all directions looking for her...... After nearly an hour Miss 5 was finally discovered. Thankfully two lovely ladies keep her with them till my GDIL caught up with her...
Here is a map we were to follow and I have marked it with an X were Miss 5 went missing and then found, about 3 kms away around the other side of the river.....
Miss 5 followed people along the river over the bridge along the other side of the river past the Monastery ( where I do Patch ) and through to the new estate.
Once we all reunited and rested it was off back into town , adults tired and relieved and Miss 5 none the worst for her ordeal.....
Back over the Troll bridge ,
See the river on the left . One of the reasons we were so worried....
Finally back to the Gazebo at the Town Park to hand in the tokens and collect their Easter goodies. All children received the same.
Happy cousins !!!!! and after enjoying a Sausage in a bun, drink and some fruit it was off home.
Sew today Great Oma needed to relax and I sewed the 3rd block of FatCat Patterns Christmas Gnomes.
Happy Stitching.
