Gisborne

Retreat has started, this afternoon has been a busy stitching one

I have a table runner quilted and the binding is on ready to be hand sewn down.

I have the blocks up for the next quilt

Still deciding if they need to be moved around. 

I had a  walk late this afternoon, the clouds were interesting 

We had some heavy showers thus afternoon ,I just got my walk in before it rained again.

Now I am sewing the binding onto the I Spy quilt

Back to some sewing for me.

Happy stitching 

Tiki tour day 1

Today I picked up Raewyn from the airport and we headed for Ballarat. We called in at Kryal Castle on our way to get a stamp in our Australian Adventure Passports

Then the selfie queens got busy

Oh dear!! It was a windy time of day.

From here we went to Sebastapol to visit Gail's Patchwork Emporium - what a shop, do much to see! 

From here we went to the Wildlife Park and saw the Tassie Devils being fed, they are fierce little critters, busy fighting each other for food,  even though there was enough for both. 

There were many koalas to see

this one was snoozing in the sun

I had hoped Raewyn could feed the kangaroos but they were not interested sadly, must have been well fed today

We also saw a quoll being fed

He moved fast so was not easy to catch .

Once we git to our accommodation we settled in, had a cuppa and then had a walk along part of Lake Wendoree

We went to find answers for a cache

Memorial for prisoners of war, sad to see.

We have now had dinner and it is relax time. 

No stitching happened today.

Happy stitching.
