Merry Christmas 2014

One last sleep and it was time to head in for our last and Christmas patchwork day.  Most of the girls were able to make it but we missed those who couldn't join us ... sometimes 'normal' life has to come first.

Our morning kicked off with lots of show and tell and just a little chatter.

Di was busy making more gorgeous bags for gifts.

Margaret has had her embroidery machine making Christmas trees and has sewn her blocks together.

Sandra has also been busy with her embroidery and sewing machines.

Morning Tea time and out came the most yummy of treats to have with our cuppa.

Our gift swap this year was made up from the word 'QUILT'.... 4 gifts with one being a 12 1/2" block and one gift to contain something edible. I'll share pictures of the clever parcels in another post.

Time for a bit of sewing before we headed off down to the Federal Inn for a delicious lunch to celebrate 2014.

Fay has been working on some lovely blocks.

2015  ~  Our first date back has been set at Monday 19th January and we will look into our future dates when we get together then.  Let's all hope that good soaking rain has broken this cruel drought by then.
