There are so many things to be grateful for…. NICE SMOOTH
ROADS HOME… are just one of them… but the stops between are also fabulous … I
last blogged from Tamworth NSW and the next day we took a detour to Nundle… and I
must say, the bumpy roads are so worth it…and I got my hands on a bundle of Moda
Chocolate by 3 sisters… thank you Kerry Swain from Cottage on the Hill … you
have made someone very happy…
Then it was followed by a pit stop, you all will love…. The
Home Patch…I think I just drooled… but only a little bit…I did get another new
project…. Of cause….
We arrived home on the Wednesday afternoon safely and just
in time for me to leave for a retreat starting Friday morning… phew… And from
my first Blog I worked on this little beauty… Twelve days of Christmas range of fabric...
and can now boast that I have two students… the fun Sarah
and funny Sherrie … we have also renamed my “Christmas with Anni” to “Christmas
with Robyn” and I’d also like to say that I can do this teaching thing… lol... this
is Sarah’s, as you can see she has got a quite bit done…. Sherri will work on
hers at home… told you she was funny… lol
There was about 14 of us on retreat and we all had a great
time eating, sewing and chatting… then they surprised me with this beautiful
quilt for my up and coming 50th… how lucky am I and I will treasure
it everyday… Thank you everyone for a great weekend…
Till next time … thank you for stopping by…and all smiles
Robyn…
