I am in a Cottage Garden Threads club</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I receive 4 new threads each month with a fee stitchery pattern</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Gail has designed this to hold the Cottage Garden threads</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
they fit in perfectly I haven't lost any out of the top yet.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I haven't decided what pattern I will pick for next month.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am currently trying to Quilt one of Gails designs </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which I actually made a couple ( cough cough)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
well maybe more than a couple so that may well have to take </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
precedence next month & a small project may be the answer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I am now off to Martines blog to see what everyone else has </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have bordered it with some favourite fabric.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I brought quite a few metres a couple of years ago </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am undecided if I will leave it this size and make a small hanging from it</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
or put another couple of borders on and make a pillow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So that is my first ( almost finish) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am really excited by my choice for next month </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think it will be really pretty.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also had another Gail finish </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
These stitcheries were a free block a few Christmas' ago</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have had them made up & quilted for a while</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then as happens it just sat and waited for me to </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
bind it and add a sleeve.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is going to be an overseas gift for this Christmas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So one gift down already.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A new year a new start so hopefully this blog will see a bit more action.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have decided to join with Martine from Sunshine Quilting blog</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the Gail Pan stitch along.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have quite a few unfinished things designed by Gail and a lot more</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
patterns that I would like to do.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There is no pressure with this SAL if you get one thing done great if not it's not a problem </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which sounds like my kind of challenge !.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So pop back on January 28th to see what I have managed to finish.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway as I haven't posted here for so long I thought I would have a lot to show you but the end of the year must have been a bit quiet as there wasn't as much as I would of liked .</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I did manage to complete another baby quilt and also a quilt for her Mum, she has been dropping hints to me about a quilt since I first met her so at last I managed to finish one for her.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
October was very exciting as I got to meet & attend a workshop by Jenny Doan of Missouri Star quilts she is as much fun in real life as she is on her videos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We had a great day & I even managed to get some sewing done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I got home I decided to get stuck in & finish the top at least so it didn't sit in a box for a coupe of years like all my other workshop projects</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here it is, still waiting for borders I know but at least almost done</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for Christmas.</div>

Although you probably wouldn't think so as it's been ages since I posted. No excuse I had some personal reasons for taking a break but have decided to get over it. I have no control over who reads this blog so it's either accept that someone you don't want to read it, can or give it up and as I'm not ready for that I'm back .<br />

the chance to make a Log Cabin top.</div>

Well I can't believe that another month has disappeared in a blink of an eye (or so it seems!!)......but at least I have something to blog about ...<br />
<br />
<br />
The Friday Fabricholic decided to have a small roadtrip this friday as Val had found another fabric supply for us to support :).<br />
Lyn runs her business from her home,she does shows and is quite happy for you to go and see her selection by appointment ....I guess I was expecting just a small amount of choice boy was I wrong!! she has all of Lynette Andersons new line and much much more.<br />
Her pool table was covered in boxes of fat quarters,eighths,50cm width of fabric,books etc etc then there is a room set out like a Quilt shop with bolts. well worth a visit.<br />
For Adelaide quilters she is just off Henley Beach rd the business is called Quilter Quarters so if you would like to visit call Lynette Buttfield on 0427618739...we even got morning tea..<br />
This is the small selection I was tempted to buy, a few Civil war fats in pink and brown and yes before you ask I have got a project for them :) and a jelly roll <br />
" Independence Trail" by Minick and Simpson and no I don't have a project for that..but the rule is that when you open a jelly roll you have to replace it on the shelf..or is that just in my house !!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Next is my <span style="font-size: large;"><strong><u>TA DAH</u></strong></span> moment....... Yes Flowerdale is finally finished and up on the wall...I am so pleased with this,it looks lovely in the dining room really finishes the room off... so thanks once again to <a href="http://gailpandesigns.typepad.com/">Gail Pan</a> for a great pattern, now I have to tackle quilting Beries and Bluebirds !!<br />

unlike number 2 which was paper pieced and drove me nuts!! took me nearly all day and 2 centres to get it together, it's still a bit wonky but will have to do I'm sure it's nothing I can't work out when it comes to sewing it all together<br />
Look forward to April 1st when we get number 4 and of course the yummy recipes that come with it<br />
<br />

We had the Saturday girls get together here, so I baked a cake !! wasn't bad ...we had a great day lots of chatter,laughs and a little bit of sewing ...Love these days you feel so invigorated after all the problems of the World have been solved ...well mainly those in our little world but thats enough ... I think the company of other Quilters in so important you get friendship and support which I think is enough to keep you sane.<br />

I had decided that this year,as every year really,I was going to finish all the half done things languishing in my sewing room so of course when I saw <a href="http://www.stitcherydickorydock.com/" target="_blank">The Sugar Block Club</a> on Amys Blog I leapt in & signed up !! Who could resist a block pattern/ instruction email plus recipe every month for under $8 Bargain so I emailed on Sunday got my first block email on Weds & sewed the block on Thursday <br />
<br />

(second) Mum and Dad while they nursed their daughter ( my friend) Sallie at home till sadly her death 10 days ago. She had been diagnosed 12 weeks before with secondary Liver cancer so it was very swift at the end. She hung on to make her 50th birthday. So as you can imagine things have been a bit sad .... Her parents are blessed to have a great support, as her Mum is part of our Quilting Group, it"s true what they say about Quilters :)<br />
<br />
<br />
Anyway some pics of what has been happening here....Some Sisters Choice blocks I am making from the Lilly and Will line by Bunny Hill <br />

Well no posts for a week ....naughty me but has been a really busy week here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I went to see a specialist on Monday about my shoulder & we have decided that an operation is the way to go, so am waiting to hear when I go in, it will only be day surgery but I will be home for 4-6 weeks so after the initial healing I am hoping to get some stitching done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, as I am still madly yo-yo-ing here there are no new pics of them so I will show you my newest piece of furniture which my husband has painted for me </div>

The yo-yos are growing slowly, not sure if I will have enough circles cut but am not planning on my version being as big as Kims, so will wait till these are all gathered before I cut any more.<br />
Hope you can see the picture in the background the pattern is Welcome Wagon from Kim Diehls book Simple Graces.<br />

But first I was a very, very happy little Quilter this week when a parcel arrived on my doorstep, a very eagerly awaited parcel with the new book by the wonderfully talented ,very funny Kim Diehl....as all her books are this one is full of projects that you just want to start straight away...<br />

I am joining <a href="http://abyquilt.blogspot.com/">MayBritt</a> and <a href="http://hannequilt.blogspot.com/">Hanne</a> on their Tour de Fabric, they watch the Tour de France and use this time to finish or get a lot done on selected projects, I am going to sort out what I want to do and will he post these on Saturday the first day of the Tour.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Although I have said that I don't get to watch the Tour as it's mainly on during the night here ( plus I'm not a great fan ) so I might call mine the Tour de Wimbeldon and watch the tennis instead :)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you are interested in joining us head on over to either or both Blogs and let the ladies know there is no pressure so should be a lot of fun...</div>
