We set off this morning, fingers crossed that the forecast rain would stay away from the Cottage on the Hill for Kerry's airing of the quilts. BUT, we had only travelled for 1/2 hour when we found that it was raining up in the hills and the airing was cancelled...drats! But we decided to continue anyway and have a nice day out, just a bit wetter than planned. Raelee, Julie, Lea and myself had the company of my dear Mum (who was dreadfully excited about the trip to Nundle...she hadn't been there for more than forty years), and off we went to a very wet and bitterly cold Nundle.
Here are the piles of quilts (with my Mum...she looks like she is having fun) ...
that should have been hanging here...
with these quilts that Kerry collected from us on Thursday.
Here are the lovely green hills...
surrounding the shop...a lovely day out, lunch at Mt Misery...
a visit to the woollen mill...we still had a memorable day out, hoping for better weather next year!

Bother! Sounds like you had our 'crappy' weather! Glad you still had a nice day out. We are taking my Mum on an outing next Sunday to somewhere she hasn't been for a long time, she is really looking forward to it!
Still looks like a nice day out.
Looks lovely and inviting there inside with all the quilts..Mt Misery sounds like a good name for the weather that day.

Glad to hear you still had a lovely day...
My Mum is 18000 klm away so haven't seen her for 18 month now.
Enjoy
That surely counts! It's good to hear you were still able to enjoy the rest of the day. You look pretty good with those craves. Very inspiring!

How disappointing for Kerry, but it sounds like you still had a fabulous day out.
What a shame it was cancelled but you had a lovey day out! Gee it looks lovely and green there!
It was ashame about the weather - but great to see you all anyway. Book it in for next year - hopefully the rain will stay away
looks awesome with all the quilts there and just think you still got to shop and chat the scenery is breath taking
I too love that last block. I wish we could get the pattern in the USA. It is unique and beautiful at the same time.
