The quilt show was in town... Brisbane that is and I flew up and joined these lovely ladies for a day shopping and gazing at some amazing quilts. So good to catch up with Michelle and to meet Fiona (Bubz rugz) and Jeanette. I was very circumspect in my buying as I knew I had limited weight to bring back to Melbourne. Great day ladies Thanks.
You know how I love butterflies.
Freedom to fly, Rosalie.
Hexies... can't go past them,
Fell in love with this one but know I will never do anything like it.
We all know who this is. So striking in it's simplicity , yep the dark areas are just dots!
Striking combination of colours.
Bit out of order but these are my September Dear Jane blocks. Gold star Andrea???
Rosette 10 a , Millefiore quilt along.
Back to Qld. I said to Fiona that I wouldn't get to Toowoomba to the Quilters Angel which is why I had to see their stall at the show. Thursday DD2 says" why don't we drive to Toowoomba? " so we did and I visited the Quilter's Angel in it's village green setting. Ate lunch at a cafe on the other side of the green. Beautiful.
The real reason I went up to Brisbane. DD2 lives there and I only see her every 3 months or so. Must admit it was a good excuse to visit the show as well though.
