Good luck for Wednesday Twi.
My friend flew home to UK yesterday, landed at Heathrow just 28½ hours from leaving here. Said she arrived back to cold, cold, cold weather. Felt so sad as think without saying it we wondered if we would ever see one another again. Was just wonderful having her here for 5 weeks, did lots, laughed lots and drank lots - what fun!

Evening all, finished the quilt I started and also made a small NZ Quilt, is an order, still have to do the binding then I will post a pic.
All the best for those who are having their bones rattled tomorrow.
Twi hope your blood test is good.
Fran I know how you feel, gets kinda quiet in the house when visitors leave. But there is also a positive site to it, you get your privacy back.
Well it's nearly nitey nitey tie for me. Sweet dreams.

It did .... LOL
this is a crumb quilt which I gave to the rest home where my Dad is. I love crumb quilts. Every block is full of memories of previous projects. My mum mainly makes these now ... They are quite forgiving when your eyesight is poor

Evening all. Found a few crumbs on the plate .... Yum! Just home from a splurge party and sitting up in bed with a glass of lemon, honey and ginger. One day soon I might be home at the same time as everyone else and be able to join in with a real time conversation. Can I ask why Jumbo needs to know when we turn a page?
