WHERE O WHERE HAVE I BEEN?

 Ooops!!! It has been a while since my last blog entry but I have been busy. Where have I been? I have been on a retreat at Rawson Village with one of my patchwork groups back in April and we made a few stops at patchwork shops along the way and on our return trip. I also went to the AQC with another group where I managed to buy more things. Then I went to a Vic Quilters gathering in Stawell and stayed overnight in Ballarat. Ofcourse, there was more shopping on this trip too. On the way back we called into Mill Rose Cottage where Barb joined us for lunch and afternoon tea. Yes, I did buy more things there too!!!

So, here are some pics of some yummy fabrics and patterns, These are for 4 separate projects.

(The fur in the foreground is my cat!) The next is a pic of some yummy delph fabrics that have been on my list for a while. 

 I couldn't resist more Sashiko , Gail Pan's new Christams book, Rosie Quinlan's hexie stitcheries , a cute little project from Marg Low AND a gorgeous pattern for a child's quilt called "Once Upon a Time".

I couldn't resist this Japanese bag pattern to make with the Japanese charm squares I have had for a couple of years. I love these detachable bag handles too.

These kitty cats were mewing at me from a shelf at the patchwork shop in Warragul. They just leapt out at me . Really! 

These funky fabrics are for my Crazy Cats quilt with the 2 light fabrics as the backgrounds. I found them at Eureka Patchwork in Ballarat. 

Found more Delph!!!

Remember that child's quilt pattern I mentioned earlier? Well, I found some wonderful Kaffe Fasset fabrics for it. Now I can start doing the stitcheries . Yey!

The joke is that I have no grandchildren yet and the  grandma hormones have kicked in really badly.So, I have decided to start making quilts and putting them away . They will then magically appear when the time comes. Hehehehe.

The Cosmo threads are for another project.

Last but not least , a cute little tin I bought as well.

Oops. A bit blurry.

Next time I promise I will have some pics of some finished projects and some new ones started. Thanks for visiting again. Angel Blessings.
