Hi everyone. I am here even though I haven’t posted.
I have travelled 7,000 kms in our bus from Mildura to Darwin and back over 3 weeks. Camping on roadsides, in caravan parks, free camping spots, spending time at my brothers and back home again.
We left home early on a Saturday and made a stop at a painted silo in Wirrabara
Okay, more about my trip later..
Tonight I have been preparing a new challenge project for our quilt group. We are to make a FAIRY QUILT GODMOTHER project.

This is my plan.
These are the fabrics chosen.
And now I am ready for a day of sewing. I have my fabric swatches pasted to my plan so I can follow them easily….. Hopefully…
This is such a fun project to work on as a challenge. It is also a mystery as you really don’t know what the finished project will look like.
Have a look at some of the other finished projects.
Everyone will be different.
Go and have a look at this site to see how much fun it is to choose a different project. If you print it out as per the instructions it will only measure 10” * 14”….. Mine is a bit smaller and there are others in the group that have done it much larger. We have to finish ours by September/October for our Quilts in the Garden display.
