Airing of the Quilts - Braidwood


Last Saturday my darling husband drove me over 2 hours to a little country town called Braidwood for the annual Airing of the Quilts. It was spectacular to see all the gorgeous quilts hanging from the buildings.

Here is a link to my web album of all the pics but below are a few of my favourites.

This next one was hanging on the front of a fire engine at the fire station. Each block was made by a member of the fire department. It was fantastic!

Robertson

A couple of weeks ago we took my mum & aunty & uncle for a drive to Robertson in the Southern Highlands for a lunch of famous Robertson Pies. These are the fruit pies. We all had a meat pie as well LOL. But I shared a fruit pie with my mum.
The cloud was really low that day and Robertson is quite high so it made for some interesting pics



The Antique & collectibles shop in the old Cheese factory. Was some great things in here.

We left Robertson and drove down the mountain to the coast and went to Shellharbour and had fish & chips by the water. Very healthy eating day!!!

What I have been working on

Ok here is what I have been working on.

The cushion was for a swap in one of my Yahoo groups and the stitchery is part of my Secret Santa swap, hence the cover up of the recipients name LOL

Putting myself out there..... LOL

OK fellow bloggers - is anyone out there going to the Girls Day at Nundle on 8th May 2008???
I would really love to go but can't get anyone to come with me. So I was thinking that maybe if any one out there in blogland was going then at least I could say I knew someone, well sort of LOL LOL
So leave me a comment & introduce yourself if you are going and you may get a little surprise in the mail from me!!

On the crafty side of things, I have actually been doing some sewing!!! Finally !!!
Unfortunatley I can't show you the pics yet as some are for presents (and Secret Santa Swaps!) but will post them soon.
