    I started hand quilting mine today...then just bind and label and off to the post office. I am really pleased with it and hope my partner likes it as well.

    I like anything you make me! Have fun! I have been doing a couple of sewing jobs last week or so and not as much computer. One pays better than the latter. I will start my July quilt before next Monday, I promise. I do have the pattern now. Now to see if I can actually make it!

    Not too fast, Bertie! I any still planning. I I think this is going to be one of those I'm just going to have to start and hope it comes together as I go. lots of ideas just nothing that seems to want to go down into the fabric.. sometimes those are the best ones.

    I got started this afternoon on my partner's quilt and it is looking the way I kinda envisioned it would-so far, anyway. Will have to think about how I want to quilt it. Will be done in plenty of time to beat the deadline!

    Jaba-the way you used the mountain scene in the center and as a frame really looks neat. It looks 3-D! Beautiful country for sure.

    ljdugas31, I am quilting your little quilt today, so hopefully it will be mailed later in the week. Can't wait to see what little beauty you made for me

    I have also finished piecing and quilting the 'surprise' quilt for Cogito so that should be mailed at the same time.

    Had a great weekend away - plenty of footy, wine, walking and food. Oh and us girls went and saw a fantastic musical 'Legally Blonde' - amazing talent. Could have stayed another night and saw Pink in concert, but wanted to get home to my sewing machine LOL

    Lyn, what's footy?

    Sounds like you had a wonderful time! Are you talking about Pink the Japanese girl band? About a million years ago my boyfriend's band opened for them on tour in Japan.

    Krystyna, Australian Rules Football (I think it is shown in America) - there was 5 games on in Melbourne over this last weekend and we managed to see 3 games. Friday night (90,000 fans - my team lost), Saturday arvo (45,000 fans - DH's team lost) and Saturday night (85,000 fans - best team won). Sunday arvo my best friend, DD and I went to the musical.


    No Pink is the female American singer. She is touring Australia at the moment. She does an amazing show.

    Duh. I was actually thinking of Pink Lady- this is what happens when you get decrepit.
