I have been busy stitching .... I've almost finished another of my "Slice 'n' Dice" quilts - this time in sweet Beatrix Potter Peter Rabbit fabrics - so cute. 
I just have the side borders to put on then I can bind it :o) - I'll show you more when it's finished.

I think they're gorgeous. I can't remember the name of this one so please don't ask me, all I know is it's a double ;o). It's like a rose it's so beautiful!

It's like a rose it's so beautiful!We all went out for dinner last Thursday night for darling DILs birthday. The pub we went to very kindly brought out a cheesecake for her (on the house!!) and this is the knife they gave her to cut it ............!!!!!!!!!!!!
Isn't it HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!???????? (Can you see my DS reflection in the knife??!!) For the life of me I can't imagine why they thought we'd need a knife THAT big to slice a little old cheesecake!!

And here's what they looked like when they went to a fancy dress party last Saturday night. Ross (DS) was mild mannered Clark Kent and Alicia (DDIL) was Rainbow Bright (do you remember that cartoon from the 80's???) ........ 
don't they look fabulous lol - even Skye (aka Poops) got into the piccy :o)!!!!
We went for a drive out to Beechmont this morning - it was such a beautiful day and a gorgeous drive through the bush and past lots of lovely farms to get there.
We stopped at the Beechmont markets on the way to our friend's housewarming 
and bought these yummy treats ...........
Strawberry Jam cookies, Banana muffins and an apple and blackberry pie. We bought custard and cream on the way home so that will be our delicious dessert :o).

I believe those are Peonies. At least that's what they look like from the picture. Beautiful. Love the costumes too. Hilarious.
Your Camelias are beautiful and it looks like much fun was had at the dinner. My daughter absolutely loved Rainbow Bright when she was a kid..she would relate to the costume very much. :) Thanks for sharing great photos Joy. Hugs hugs Vicki
