I’m like a duck!!!

All calm on top but underneath I’m paddling like mad trying to stay on top of things LOL. It’s been such a full on week … on Tuesday I taught my very first patchwork class!!! I was so excited and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, I’d love to do it again :o). This is the tablerunner I taught … it’s quilt-as-you-go!! Now normally I wouldn’t do something this size quilt-as-you-go but for the purpose of the lesson I wanted something that the ladies could almost finish by the end of the class – which most of them did :o).

Bear (DD2) also had her formal on Tuesday night - and even if I say it myself, she looked just beautiful … wanna see???!!

That’s Luke with her … he was her date for the formal but he’s just a friend. They went in this fabulous old Monaro … Here she is with her boyfriend Blake once they arrived at the venue, aren’t they a gawjus couple :o) … They had a wonderful time, and graduation day was great too, I can’t believe her school days are over **sigh**. But now it’s nail-biting time for me while I wait for them to come home from ‘schoolies’ down the Gold Coast. They’ll be back on Tuesday … and not a minute too soon for me!!!

I have managed a bit of stitching this week too … this disappearing 9 patch table runner is a Christmas gift for a friend … This isn’t a verygood piccy … the colours are much prettier in the flesh ;o). They’re Moda “Shades of Blue”. I’ve also been making something else – but I can only give you a sneaky peek … Pop into the Among the Gumtrees blog on Monday and you’ll be able to see what I’ve been up to ………… cos it’s my turn to bring you the last Christmas Freebie!!! I hope you’ve enjoyed all the fabulous designs we’ve brought to you on the ATG blog over the past few weeks, cos we just LOVE to give them to you :o)!!!

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!!!!!
