The last couple of weeks

I have finished two more KOGO blankets
I have finished the quilting and sewing in all the endy bits on two cot quilts, these will go to the Children's ward at St John of God hospital for any children in hospital over Christmas 

I hope to make some more....๐Ÿ™„
We have had some wonderful sunsets, the colours looked much better in real life
Colac Quilters Guild had their Quilt In last Saturday, a good sized group attended. Gail from Gail's Patchwork was the speaker and it was very interesting hearing about her fabric career.
Looking out the window at the Bowling club, the sun  finally come out and the day was a bit warmer.
A group of happy quilters. Di, Carole  me, Heather and Jo.
I used a gift voucher from Shane plus some more and get this fabric from These Clever Hands,  love her colour curated packs. Blogger wants this photo upside down ๐Ÿคจ
The stars have made it back out of the tin and a few more have been stitched.
Sunday hubby and I went over to Queenscliff (along with what felt like hundreds of other people) and got fish and chips for lunch and ate them over looking the entrance of the bay. The shop we go to has a separate fryer and can guarantee gluten free. Even had a pineapple fritter, something I have not had for years.
We then drove around to Point Lonsdale and had a look there
Lots of surf rolling in.
Today I went to sewing group then had a walk around the lake at Drysdale, was so calm and peaceful.
Home now and I am supposed to be packing, we are staying at Tullamarine tomorrow night and then fly to the Sunshine Coast on Wednesday.
Better get a move on
Happy stitching.
