Lovely weekend

I had a lovely weekend sewing.
Saturday we held the modern quilt guild in the shop. We had a few new members attend and everyone started sewing blocks for a charity quilt for our next charity day. I love having all those ladies in the shop, they are so nice.
Deb from Down Under Quilts joined the group and it was nice to have Jan Foster back.
I finished one of my quilts on Sunday
In between housework and shopping.
It is a new pattern I sell
In the shop. Really easy to read.
I wonder what this week will bring.

I know I keep saying this but this year is just going to fast... I wish it would slow down... My nan say's I should be careful what I wish for because before I know it I'll be her age and when you can only sit at home all day the time goes by sooo slow...
I've put it down to just loving what I do...
Anyway lot's of things on the go at the moment.. as usual
Anita goodesign quilt coming along nicely.. And finished a cute little quilt top ready to now be quilted...

I am still here !!!!!!

Okay, I know I haven't posted anything for about 4 weeks but I really would prefer sewing than being on my computer. Computers were not around when I started sewing so I never had to worry about Blogging or Facebook or really even looking at the net (because before you know it you have sat there for 8 or so hours) BUT I know you all love reading about what is happening in our world of sewing, so I will try and remember to let you all know what is going on.
Ange's classes have really taken off, she is such a great teacher. Pictures will come soon.
Jan's Junior's class (we were calling them Junior Quilters but they are sewing all kinds of things) are in full swing with the classes full at the moment.
And all BOM's and Sewing Groups are going well.
The Wyong quilt show is on again in a couple of weeks. so we all hope to see you there.
Till next time
Happy Sewing
