Slow Sunday Stitching and the GATSBY 21st

Yes we did have a good time at the party. We are all dressed up and looked the part.
Here are the awesome foursome.
DH, me, 21st Alicia and our dear daughter Kristy.
At least we could smile even though we had some tears. Read about the story HERE and to see a photo of her quilt I made...

After last nights Great Gatsby 21st party and a slow start to the day I went and helped my daughter put up some curtains.  Then back home for some slow stitching, a movie, a bit of tv, dinner and some games. I am working on some more HEXIES for a block raffle at Heathcote Quilters.

I am linking up with 
Kathy has asked us to put up a photo with our hand in it. Boy was it hard trying to take a photo with the opposite hand.

Now to catch up on a photo for last weeks post. This is the little babies jumper I knitted for her little girl to soon be born. My daughters friend is due in 2  days.
Have a look HERE to see my other gift and mum to be.
