Tassie was fantastic! Deirdre and Leonie sure know how to put on a beautiful sewing day! Here is the hall all set up and waiting for the ladies to arrive
Here they all are having a lovely day of sewing, chatting and eating. It was such a lovely time and Leanne and I were thrilled to teach ther
The Quilted Crow ladies had also set up a beautiful store with all sorts of sewing goodies including my new fabric range which had just arrived in time for the day
It was pretty cool seeing all the bundles of my fabric wrapped up so beautifully
We were staying in the Historic town of Richmond which had some amazing shops and also the oldest bridge in Australia
On the afternoon when Leanne took the above photo, we went walking around the town and found an old catholic church which meant we could wander around the graveyard (I know, a bit weird but an activity I really do enjoy!) It is quite amazing what can be learned about the history of an area while walking around the graveyard.
Well, we are home again now so back to work! Here is
the photo I promised you of the screen. I used the teal house fabric from "Grandmother's Flower Garden" It looks great. It will be all ready for the AQM. I am working on the rest of the furniture and some projects using the PVC coated fabric. I am really looking forward to the AQM next week as several of the girls will all be staying in the city in a lovely hotel. I think it will be heaps of fun (a bit old for pajama parties???)
Till next time,
enjoy your creation,
Rosalie xx
Never too old for pyjama parties! The screen looks gorgeous.
See you at AQM, I'll be tagging along with Helen & Leonie.

The screen looks beautiful! Hey, I'm older than you and I'm NOT too old for a sewing pj party. My advice: go for it and don't forget the popcorn. ;0

It looks as though you had a wonderful time Rosie. I love Richmond where we stayed about 7 yrs ago now in an old house off the main road. My BIL got married right where you took the photo of the bridge so it bought back wonderful memories. Richmond is just beautiful to look around and stay for a few days. I love your screen, the teal goes so well with the white wood.

The screen looks fantastic. I enjoyed the Quilted Crow Gathering ... have nearly finished the house stitchery you designed for us.
PS. I love your new fabric range.

The screen looks divine Rosalie. It was lovely meeting you in Tassie. I have since purchased some more Parlan - Thanks for puting me onto it - It is just lovely.
