OCTOBER?

 Well I can honestly say I do not know where this year has gone! that's a sign of old age isn't it?

4- Assemble Rosie's Star quilt top

5- QAYG Christmas Row Quilt

6- Bind 100 days quilt

8- Bind Shane's quilt

9- Scrap challenge teal and aqua blocks

10- Assemble Leilanis soulshine & daydremaas quilt

11- Bowl Cosies for Grant and Sarah

12- Bind Mirage quilt

That will keep me busy for a while

This is not the finished order for my Christmas row quilt I have to put the tree row in too.

The garden has gone nuts flowers everywhere 


We have run out of pickles and pickled cucumbers so we only have sauces to sell at the local pub, we have a mile of Jam but the local CWA ladies sell their jams there so we don't.
I haven't been reading I don't know why I just haven't. I have been using my Accuquilt to cut 2.5" squares and also some triangles and have got them in seperate containers for whenever.
I had a scare with my eye, nothing wrong I just have an overactive imagination, I dreamt I went blind and had to get rid of all my fabric, so I am trying hard to use what I have. I have 3 large quilts to bind and another at the quilter to be picked up soon so that will keep me busy.
I cooked a mandarin cake and caramel slice this morning a friend was coming over for morning tea, well the cake stuck in the mould and crumbled and the chocolate didn't melt and spread over the caramel so looks like Dave and I will just have to eat them.



Mudgee Weekend Away

 The weekend after the long weekend was Coolah Country Patchwork's weekend retreat in Mudgee. They rent a 6 bedroom house and off we go....
