A review of the last few weeks


How time fly's, our lives are so busy these days. One week blurrs into another and then it's three week since I have posted anything on my blogs. I bought and now set up the secondhand longarm in the shop. She is old but solid needed some new parts and polish. The parts ordered from America have arrived, just waiting for technician now. Hopefully by the end of October I will be practicing on the (beast) machine. It is so big a bit daunting but I'm sure we will create some beautiful quilts. 

Willing helpers

Master apprentice

Kim and myself looking forward to a bit of creative quilting


Most of the girls from the shop will be going down to Brisbane this week/weekend to see the Queensland Quilt Show. It's a great place to catch up with friends and be creatively inspired. There are always so many beautiful quilts to look at. If you are heading there say hello to Kim at the Bernina stand on Saturday...

Our friend Pamela who is a frequent visitor to the shop has two quilt in the show this year, and has won a prize. but we don't know any more than that. Both quilts are hexagons and machine quilted, we are all excited for Pamela, Congratulations..................... 

I will post photo's with Pamela's permission of course next week....
