Yesterday we had a trip to one of my favourite patchwork shops. Ballarat Patchwork. It is such a beautiful shop. It is well worth the hour and a half drive. I bought some beautiful new fabrics, pattern, templates and quilt labels.
So far I have lost this post 3 times. So i'm keeping this one brief in case it disappears again.
Lots of brights and some 1930's. Then off to Gails Patchwork where it really is Mary Rose heaven to pick up some different fabrics. She must have every Mary Rose ever released.
The brights are to make a circle quilt called Tequila Sunrise, with which I thing will look great.
Oooh look at that!!!!!! I must be sounding stressed here, my husband has just bought me a scotch and coke. ha ha
He and my son are cooking tonight's dinner. So far I've been called away 3 times to help. Now my photo's will not do as I wish them to.
This is my Star quilt I have been working on. There is over 700 one and a half inch squares used in this pattern. I have not been able to put on the final points to the stars as I have run out of the pink. ON the search now for some more fabric.
I'm going to finish this post because now my photo's are playing funny buggars. Hope you all had a great Sunday.
