Catch up once again....photo heavy!!

Life has been busy these last few days, Friday afternoon I took Jenny and Deryck to the Gull bus and they made their way to the airport, they had a super late flight, 11.30, got no sleep on the plane so Jenny was tired yesterday.
Yesterday was Guild day and we had wonderful show and tell and a great speaker

a panel from Indonesia, quilted,

nearly missed this one, is two panels, one cut in half and put either side of the whole one
just a few of the beauties on display...love this one!! There was much more show and tell, but this was all I got this time.
Our speaker was Robyn Taylor and she makes fabric mosaics.


Robyn's work and also her friend Janice's work.
Tracee and Margaret came here last night and we had a great evening together.
Today we went back for the workshop with Robyn and here are some progress photos.
Look at these two working away...the whole workshop was very quiet as everyone had their head down bum up and were concentrating and working!

My start on # 1 son

this is where I finished at the end of the workshop, very happy with this!!
Marg is working away on a picture of her Mum from when she was about 16 years old.

and just before we packed up to head home,
And last but not by any means least
Tracee is working on a mosaic of her husband

where Tracee was when we had to pack up.

and here are all the happy students with their work. They are all people except the second from the left which is going to be a koala, and the third from the right which is going to be a cat.
We had a quiet but very enjoyable day.
Happy creating.
