Thanks to Sarah who did these stitchery's for me. I have turned them into pin cushions, journal covers, wall hanger and little bags. Thanks heaps Sarah.

Also thanks to Denise who made and donated the wonderful trivets.

In the background is a peek of someones quilt ready for the show.

Only sent my two quilts away Wednesday to be quilted for the show. Nothing like leaving to the last minute. Kerry ended up tracking down the fabric I was short of received it last Thursday. Thanks Kerry.

The quilt show is being advertised on www.nbcf.org.au. which is were your donation will go.

Thank to everyone for your generousity and support.

Happy Stitching

I have also had a stitchery designed for the Quilt Show. If you would like to spend a day with new and old friends of patchwork. Came down have a look at the show then sit around and stitch. I will have a stitchery challenge that will be available at the show. The pack will consist of the stitchery, needle, thread and some fabrics. Stitch with us over the weekend (anytime) or not, take the kit home and turn into something beautiful, but be sure to blog or send a photo of the finished item.

Breast Cancer pins, ribbons, pens etc will also be available over the weekend.

Hope you can join us sometime over the weekend. See you there.

Happy quilting

Been keeping busy getting organised for the Quilt Show with only 3 weeks to go until quilts have to be in. I started my quilt and ran short of one of the prints. If you know a quilt shop with Quest for a Cure fabrics. The fabric I am chasing is a Ro Gregg "Seems like old times" No. 2974. Drop me a line. Would be very grateful. Thank You to Meredith from Dragon Quilt Services who has donated a $50 Quilting Voucher and has a quilt for the show.

Went and seen Debbie at Bernina in Tamworth and she has a quilt there ready to be entered also at Cottage on the hill today I received the first entry for the quilt section. Getting exciting. Some of the girls at Cottage on the hill took home fabrics to make items to sell. Big thanks to Wendy who has made these paper weights along with chicken paper weights as well. They are on sale at Cottage on the hill for $5.
Another Big Thank You to Betty from my Tuesday Class who has made these lovely christmas napkin holders.(how close is that getting). Thank You SO much girls.

I have made some items myself that will be on sale over the weekend. So stay tuned more coming.
Happy Quilting
