I received this photo last night - don't you love it!  I can see a quilt by Lynn, and one by Kaye's group.  It is too hard for me to identify them all but if you see one you recognise please can you let me know so that I can send you a high res copy of the picture. 


You will have to bear with me tonight and tomorrow as I have had a visitor for the last week and we have been madly sewing and plotting and having a ball. Angela, from Brisbane, came to visit on New Year's Eve and we have been up to all sorts of mischief. 


Before the movie Angela was too cool to pose with Olaf!


 But after the movie!


 This morning we headed off on a road trip to visit a recipient of ours who has become a great friend, even though we had not met till today.  We are spending tonight and tomorrow morning with him and his wife (not sure they knew what they were in for) and then on the way home we are stopping off in Berry to visit Elizabeth at her quilt shop Berry Patchwork.  
Photos on Monday if we are allowed to.  No promises.

Don't be surprised if Friday and Saturday emails are not answered straight away - I think I might be busy!  Maybe a little sand around!!!

Till next time ......................keep spreading the word and happy stitching!  JMxx and Miss Axxx

  2. Thankyou for bringing up the 'not all are home' subject. When I tell people that my son is going to Afghanistan they say 'but aren't they all home?' Quite frankly it is wearing very thin.. I've stopped telling people due to it.. poor buggers over there working their bums off while the media here tells lies in their headlines.... grgggrrrr..
    Glad to see you have are having a lovely trip away..
