Today our stitching day was held at friend Anne's lovely home. Pretty China and lots of energy giving nibbles to help us stitch, chat and solve the world's problems.
Anne's delicious Lemon Thyme cake was ohhh so good!
I have the nicest friends....Bev surprised me with these lovely vintage looking hydrangeas after I had admired hers.....and they have found the perfect spot to call home....Love them!
Also today some lovely show and tell from Lorel and Sandra.
Lorel kept me company when we stitched Ruth's quilt. Hers is now complete and it is beautiful in pretty Tilda fabrics.....also featuring lovely quilting from
FIONA I love this quilt it was so enjoyable to stitch....hope to get mine together soon.
Sandra has made the sweetest baby quilt .....it is in such happy colours and fabrics....also beautifully hand quilted. We all loved the backing fabric with all its lovely sayings.
I worked on my 1797 Revisted quilt, getting the next round stitched on.
It was a very nice day.....and as I have expressed many times, I love the word nice. Many think it is a bland word but NOT me........"nice" to me is a feeling of ease and comfort that gives me joy.....a favourite way to be!
Thank you friends xx
The No Fuss Stitch a Long blocks for Romancing the Roadtrip were due for March and I have to say I was a teeny bit late but got there eventually. MARCH Postcards....
Namaste and Blessings Michelle xxx
You did have a NICE day and what a delicious cake for morning tea...
ReplyDeleteLorel's " Ruth " is very pretty inTilda fabrics and beautifully quilted by Fiona...
Oh what a cute baby quilt Sandra has made for her grand baby.
Great progress with 1797 and your Postcards..
Hi Michelle wow love the hydrangeas ,you have been busy and done some beautiful work well done my friend,love the show and tell too xx
ReplyDeleteLovely show and tell......and such pretty hydrangeas!
ReplyDeleteOh my that cake looks delicious....
ReplyDeleteA lovely way to spend the day. It is nice to see another Ruth's quilt, very pretty fabrics. Lots of stitching in your postcards....well done.
Stitching days with friends are always so nice! Nothing wrong with that word, Michelle. I love your prancing the road trip blocks, haven't come across this book before. Such a great idea for travellers, both home and abroad.
ReplyDeleteWonderful projects & show & tell. The cake looks so yummy. Hugs,xx
ReplyDeleteExcellent day.... I agree Nice is sometimes just the perfect word to use. I love lemon flavour so that cake would have gone down well. The hydrangea's are perfect in that jug.... I loved Lorels colours and the baby quilt is a favourite pattern of mine - I do admire hand quilting... good to see another rown on 1797 and a new set of postcards....

I agree about the word"nice". It is much undervalued. Your Revisited quilt is looking awesome and your postcards are lovely. Some beautiful quilts from your group and that baby quilt is so cute. I rather like that cake hehehe.
ReplyDeleteSome lovely show & tell for us...Toyur road trip surely will be a great memory quilt.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and lovely work by your friends. Did you see the 1797 pincushion? I made a template and cut some papers yesterday - oh dear, I'm getting sidetracked from all the other things I should be doing! xx
ReplyDeleteYou always have lovely days with your friends. Great show and tell. Gorgeous flowers. Well done on your stitching.
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle sorry i have changed internet plans and have been without the internet,hope it will be all sorted by the end of the day.
