...has been a pleasant one. Birthday celebrations with family & friends, far too much good food and lots of laughter & good company. It was lovely to have DH & both the children in the same place ( a fairly rare occurrence)...
and to catch up with dear friends at Bimbadgen in the Hunter Valley (stunning food!)...
time spent with friends locally...but alas I am waiting for pics...
I don't know why but not lots of photos...I think there might have been too much chatter!
I was spoilt with beautiful gifts...dear Lea blinded herself with this stunning cross stitch...
Raelee & Julie stunned me with this gorgeous quilt...
it is beautiful...
amazing stitching...
Now I need to work on this...
for all who wished me well and shared some time...thankyou!
It has been a lovely week!

Happy Birthday! I didn't realise that it was your birthday so close to mine ( and Anita's). Looks like you had a great time and lots of wonderful things. What a beautiful quilt and cross stitch! I got a quilt from a friend when I was 50 too. A lot of people think why give a quilter a quilt but they are the ones who really appreciate them, aren't they? Wishing you many more happy birthdays ( and quilts too of course)
Yes, happy belated...what amazing gifts and some wonderful family time and time with friends. Life is good!
