Day 8 of my advent box. A day in the city.

 Another day visiting and another envelope opened.

Today’s package has something I haven’t used before. Cork fabric…..

Today is a key ring with a lovely tag made with the cork appliquéd onto another piece of fabric.

This one is put on hold for a week or two.

Walking through the city I enjoyed looking at all the different buildings. Old and new, big and small, tall and low. Look how these two have that wonderful joining bridge.

Then there are the colours mixed into the buildings. In the distance…

And up closer.

We also had a visit from a HOG member.

I was in the elevator and thought I recognised a couple that were in there too. Yes, I was right.

Last year I made and donated a Harley Davidson quilt to the Melbourne OZ HOG group. They loved it. Pat was the president at the time. He and his wife, Deb were visiting their daughter in the hospital so came up to visit Tony. It was an emotional visit. Anyway, all went well and it was great to hear the stories about the quilt. This group doesn’t have a club room and meet at a local pub for their meetings. Every month they hang my quilt and do any presentations in front of it. It was so good to see photos.

Tony didn’t want his photo taken. He was very emotional. Here is Pat, Deb and myself.

Thanks for the quick visit and enjoy your OZ Hog Xmas party.
