Packing in anticipation

 I have spent the last few days cutting and preparing for a sewing retreat at Baradine with the Scrub Stitchin' girls. Sadly Raewyn can't get over here this year, I was going with hubby but he has returned from a weekend wargaming in Adelaide with what we think is a chest infection, so I am venturing of on my own. 

I decided to join some of the Sylvia's blocks together, as I have 64 made and think that is enough for a quilt top now, first row done.

Two more Anthology blocks are done

Hank came to stay Friday and Saturday, we enjoyed walks on the beach and playing ball in the back yard.

Lots of cutting happened for Betty's Medallion, the next row are Log Cabin blocks made with foundation paper piecing.

Bag packed, four projects in there, wonder if I have enough to do???
Might pack some hand sewing too, you can never have enough, just in case.
Happy stitching.
