BIG Weekend...
What's the difference between 600 and 800 Km's?
This weekends destination Hamilton Vic approx 300Km from my house. Why? To celebrate a Big Birthday with my brother.
Some Poppies flowering in my sister in laws garden, I really did go there and participate in the family celebrations.
Back to the question... A view of the Southern Ocean - Pt Fairy Vic
A lovely patchwork shop... Warrnambool Vic
Shopping at said Patchwork Shop - Frangrant Cottage and it surely is, they have lovely smelling goodies as well as gorgeous Fabrics - My Loot - fabric and thread for a secret project, and some for me too!
Oh and visit to Bliss Scrapbooking, Warrnambool Vic - netted this lot - beautiful purple ricrac and ribbon - and Rings to complete the secret project.
In between all that driving, I put the finishing stitches on my Christmas Wish Quilt - one day it will be still enough to get a decent photo. I did the quilting and sewed the binding on Thursday, the weekend task was to stitch the binding down. Accomplished!
