Cheering up

My computer is fixed! I am SO pleased! Though I know that these things never last forever (my laptop is pretty old), and it has been playing up for a while now, it was still a GRRRRR moment! All MY stuff!! Dennis spent about 3 hours after work Sunday night and fixed the prob xx

A trip to Calico Crossroads on Sunday did cheer me up! I loved being surrounded by the beautiful fabrics Pauline has! Actually, another reason I dropped in was to pick a bundle of fabrics for 'My Garden' Button BOM by Lynette Anderson. I chose Heart and Soul fabrics like Lynette's as I totally love this range! Roseanne and Kate have decided to do it too, so I have set our challenge to finish this block EVERY month..... I am waiting on some Fig Tree Cream Solid fabrics to arrive in stock, and I unsure if I will use that or not for my stitchery backgrounds....... decisions, decisions!!



On Saturday, I am off to Evandale for a Stitching Gathering with Roseanne and maybe Jeanette. REALLY looking forward to that! A few of us Tassie Bloggers will be catching up there and have even 'reserved' a table for us all! Also, a few of us will be doing a little Xmas Tree Ornie Swap there too..... Which I have finished - just have to wrap! If you are interested in going, I am sure there are some spots available, click on the pic below for the details..... It is such a FUN day!



Guest tutors are Marg Low, Libby Richardson and Rhonda Leith.

Packed to the Rafters tonight WooHoo!

Have fun and don't freeze. I would love to do a class with Marg; her patterns are so lovely. Her in-laws Don and Kath are our lovely neighbours. I'm doing My Garden too; haven't chosen colours or fabrics yet but I'm thinking fresh and pretty. Off on my trip on Monday; can't wait to get away from the cold!
