Happy helpers working away this morning.
Maria's beautiful quilt
Looking down one of the walk ways to Joan's quilt at the end.
There is a magpie at the Mill who seems to be angry we are coming and going, and swoops every time someone walks nearby....will need to take an umbrella tomorrow when I go back to help with the tweaking and setting up the trading table.
I have been sewing on the circles on the Doing the Rounds, 39 are now attached.....there are many more to go!!
This afternoon I have started on the next Aussie Hero's quilt
the theme for this one is Australian army and Iraq..so far we have the flag and a camel, hubby says I need date palm trees, so that is next to be done.
Number 2 son, Shane, is staying here for a few days while acting in a film being made at Torquay
He brought some mending
and happily found a space in the messy sewing room and proceeded to do what needed to be done!
I had better go and work out these palm trees.
Happy stitching.
A very busy day! The quilts in the show look very interesting! What fun!
ReplyDeleteOh, those quilts look good! Must make my way down there. Glad to see your son is doing his own mending; you’ve taught him well. Doing the rounds is coming along well.
ReplyDeleteSew many beautiful quilts...
ReplyDeleteHow good your son can do his own mending.
Your quilt show looks like it’s going to be grand! I’ll wager a bet that that magpie has a nest nearby and feels threatened by your comings and goings. How nice to see your son doing his own mending! His mom taught him well!
ReplyDeleteSo thrilled to see Shane gets on with his own mending..... the quilt show looks great and next year you will have doing the rounds ready for it?

Its a wonderful venue for a quilt show......speaking from a lovely experience. Everything looks fabulous. Your new Aussie hero quilt is interesting for you. You have trained Shane very well lol!
ReplyDeleteYay for sons who know how to fix things themselves! The quilt show looks amazing already. A mill seems an interesting place to hold it, too. I hope you have a wonderful turnout.
ReplyDeleteDoing the Rounds is looking fabulous Sue..
ReplyDeleteGosh Sue ... some stunning quilts at that exhibition! Thats great that Son 2 knows how to work the sewing machine, you have taught him well.
ReplyDeleteHope the exhibition goes well. What a well trained son you have! xx
