~A little R & R......a gift and Chookyblue's 2 year celebration~

Whilst on a bit of R & R from caring everyday for JoJo and healing I met up with Asta

While waiting for her as dusk was approaching this was my view

how pretty the Clyde River looked with lovely pinks coming in for sunset

And look how lovely is this little belated birthday gift from her

A gorgeous thread holder.....a lovely repro fat 1/4......a notebook and floral tissues!!!

Thank you so much Asta.......I love it all!!!

This weekend my Blogging Buddy Chookyblue is celebrating 2 years in her Chookshed.......YAY!!!

She has put an invite out to help her celebrate by stocking up on bubbles........nibblies......and taking time out to sew this weekend

I'm in on that!!!

 I'll be working on my Diamonds at Large Quilt from this book by Pam & Nicky Lintott

 and using this Layer Cake

I have sewn the blocks together and just have to work out the placement of them

A few versions here

I also hope to make a start on my Sing Bag by Anni Downs of Hatched and Patched

these are the fabrics that came with the kit!!!

 So let's break open a bottle of your preferred drink

Line up the chocolate

cheese, fruit.........whatever you want and   L E T ' S   S E W

Congratulations Chookyblue

I wonder how many wonky stitches there might be LOL!!!

Happy Sewing........Dzintra xo
