Now that TAFE has finished I've started to get back into my Needlework Group, run by Fiona...
Regularly there are new projects that we can choose to do...one of these is a Sampler and Cushion with a painted button...I'm going to do do this cushion and sampler using the 2 fabrics above...
together with some Vintage Linen...
A must do is this gorgeous Sewing Companion made by Fiona...
and this cute beehive felt pin cushion...
A stitching journal by Sylvia
and the cushion up close...
We also have a show and tell...this delightful christening gown made by one of the very talented ladies!!!
As always with groups there is food!!! Here is a cheeseplate forming part of morning tea...
along with this Gluten Free Carrot Cake with Honey Cream Frosting...the recipe can be found on my other blog My Dolce Vita over here
Petite Meringues...
When we arrive at the Hall everything is set up for us...including an iron...cutting mat...
and this brand new sewing machine from Steph's (my local patchwork shop) obtained earlier this year due to a grant!!!I've tested out my new machine (see post below)...it sews like a dream, but still learning all about it!!!
I'm going to be a bit quiet on the blog scene these next few days...I'm babysitting the 2 little Grandchildren...this should be fun!!!
Happy Sewing...Dzintra♥x

Dzintra dearest.....you are the kindest, sweetest, most adorable human being! THANK YOU for coming to see me today and miracles come in all degrees; I think HE has given us a partnership in making them happen. Of course we can't turn water into wine, but we can do what we are able to do in this life....what a joy. AND, I THINK I WILL GO OUT TODAY AND SHOP FOR A SEWING MACHINE!!!!!! Oh, and when I get it, I will let you know. ENJOY YOUR REHEARSALS! Some of my best young adult memories are from the theatre.....Bisous, Anita
