Thanks for looking after our DELISH morning tea Jen LOL. Weren’t the girls at my local patchwork store such sweeties to do this for us!!! Must get that recipe from you too Maria :o)!!!!! YUMM!!!!
Friday night saw us enjoying more yummy food – we all went to a local Italian restaurant “Elios”…
look at the size of that Tiramisu!!! I’m ashamed to say I didn’t manage to finish it …. although I really did try ;o)!!!
We were all a bit worried on Saturday as the weather had turned quite soggy (to say the least) and the wind was blowing madly too – so to Plan B it was and we all met up at the Grand View pub and enjoyed their coffee and shelter in the pretty pergola :o).
It was just so wonderful to meet you all … and finally give you a hug in person after blogging and emailing you all for so long :o)!!
Saturday night was our last night together and we all gathered back at my little patch to sort some more “New Beginnings” kits …. oh my goodness how generous everyone has been!!! At last count there were 260 kits ready to take out to Qld Quilters … and I reckon we’ll probably hit 300 as there are still some ready to be boxed up!!! As you can see … Jenny Hoot was a HUGE help LOL!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who sent kits and goodies for our New Beginnings …… there are going to be a lot of stitchers blessed by your generosity :o)!!
Sunday morning and it was time for our first “Gathering of the Nutters” to end **sniff**. Of course, a bit of last minute shopping at the airport was in order…
And look what we found at the newsagent!!! Both Fee and Vicki are gracing the pages of this month’s P&S …
had to get a piccie of the superstars with their mag :o)!! Fee even made the cover – well, her gawjus cushion did lol!!!
So now it’s back to normal again around here …. must say I’m missing my gawjus Nutter sistas already, and I can’t wait for our planned retreat in Tassie next year – WOOHOO!!! We’ll have more details on that soon. What fun it will be, you’ll be able to join us too!!!
Hope you had a terrific weekend too!!!!!!
