Megan and Belinda
Doug and I had Christmas at "Bexley" Rowena with all the family. The weather was a rotter. Like the rest of Australia it was hot, dry, windy and dusty. Even with the heat we still enjoyed our Christmas.
It's been that dry that my uncles have been feeding there sheep for months. Every one had a hand in helping out.
I run in to my friend Kathy at the Narrabri markets and she had just picked up her quilt from the quilters. This is the quilt Kathy made in the "Circle Play" class I had at Carinda. I had better say she also had a little help from Lou and Belinda. Ha Ha.... Look great Kathy.
Once I got back from "Bexley" it was straight in to the sewing.
Pauline and I have been busy little girls sewing like mad. Doug has gone up to Kathreen working and Rob went out to the farm so we had the place to our self. We have been sewing from day light to dark plus a few very late nights. It has been wonderful.
Sorry more photos on there side, I really have to work out how to fix this problem.
Pauline had quilts to make for her new classes plus patterns that I has to tried out and tested.
A lot of Pauline's quilts are quilt-as- you-go. I have learnt so much and picked up lots of tips.
Pauline busy at work.
A sneak peek of the quilts we have made. Two quilts for the jelly-roll workshop.
Pauline is also working on a book, It will be on some of her quilt-as-you-go technique.
She hopes to have it out by the middle of this year.
I love all the colour in this photo. (Sorry one more on its side) Beside the Cabarhal pub is this wonderful coffee shop full of colour and stunning things. Who said all colours don't work together.
Well I have the binding to put on one more quilt so I had better get busy. Pauline only has 3 more days here then they hit the road again. She has a busy year ahead full of classes all over Australia.
Doug will be home on Thursday and we will be going down to NSW for a few days. Bye for now and happy sew.
