Things we Love Block #10 – Take 2!!

Ooops!!!
It seems my block isn’t downloading for some of you - and is even coming out too small for others too (….it should be 5” square)!!
So sorry!!!
Let’s try this again ……………
Things we love 10
Remember to click on the big BLUE button to download it. Not the GREEN Arrow.
Block #9 is available here on Vicki’s blog – and it’s gawjus!!!!!!!! :o)
I do hope I’ve got it right this time ;o)!!!!!

(You might have noticed I've taken the Bucket of Buckets "Buy It Now" button  away from my sidebar ...... if you'd still like one, my patterns are available from these stores - or from my website.)

Things We Love Block # 10

First up I do apologise for being late with this block!! I know there are a lot of you doing this gawjus BOM and I had intended to have this last one up for you sooner – but here it is – better late than never :o)!!
Unfortunately I haven’t had a chance to stitch this one up yet, but it is something I’ll be doing soon as one of my favourite pastimes in Winter is to sit by the fire and stitch!! I’ve called this one “Home and Hearth” Things we love 10 Our fireplace isn’t quite like this one though, we have a combustion stove - but it’s still lovely and toasty on the cold Winter evenings. Yes, even in Queensland the nights are chilly at this time of year ;o)!!!
So if you’d like to download this stitchery you can find the link
I’m really looking forward to seeing the gawjus creations you have made from these stitcheries!!
Happy Stitching everyone!!!!!

A little bit of retail therapy.

It’s going to be a bit hard getting used to the end of the Among the Gumtrees group … and as such, I thought perhaps a little bit of retail therapy was in order – and where better to visit than my local quilt store :o)???
They always have something to please me :o).
They didn’t let me down … look what they were unpacking as I walked in the door …… oh my goodness, my timing was perfick!!!April 2011 100I made all the right “oh no I shouldn’t'” noises, but as you can see, resistance was futile, and this gawjus sewing box came home with me ;o). Oh it’s a super size, just right for my pretty Sue Daley blocks and all the bits and bobs that go with it … April 2011 102 It even has little pockets to pop my handy dandy needle threader and needle case in … April 2011 104But that’s not all I bought!! I thought since Rosie has been working so hard lately that she deserved a bit of bling too … and have a look at how these GAWJUS new PINK bobbins were displayed – complete with Easter yummies … April 2011 099There was no way some of these weren’t coming home with me lol. So I bought some for my Rosie in a little box all of their own … April 2011 106
Thank you so much for all of the lovely comments left on the GumTrees blog, we all really appreciate them :o). I'm sure we're going to miss bringing you the Gumtrees goodies, but we're all still here, just in our own 'houses' now and not in two any more. It was a fabulous time and I'll always be glad I was a part of it all, I've made some wonderful lifelong friends and had a blast. And don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten my other block in the “Things We Love” BOM, I’ll be bringing you my last stitchery design for it very soon so keep an eye out for that :o). Thanks to all of you for joining us all on the ride :o)!!!!
