It has been a busy couple of weeks here (so what else is new for any of us?),

there has been some sewing time making a quilt for my special birthday boy,

A visit to deliver his gift and celebrate a special day for him,

When did he grow up, as I am sure I don't look any older!

A circle game completed, I am glad I persevered!

A trip home with rain in sight,

And some sweet fabric play that has brightened my day!
This weekend, I head to Sydney to sew with friends, some of whom I have "blog-known" for a couple of years....it is super exciting to know that tomorrow I will meet these lovely ladies and spend an inspiring weekend with them. It is amazing to look at the friendships that are formed through our love of sewing, I treasure my "imaginary friends",

and look forward to lots of show and tell, chatting and laughter...watch this space!
