I did it! I did it!
Today I'm doing the big Happy Dance!
After three long years and some blood, sweat and tears I have
FINALLY….
can you guess, can you guess????
FINALLY….
to keep you in suspense just a minute more, here's an original card I made to celebrate
LOL!
I've FINALLY….
finished my first proper quilt!
Ok so maybe that bit of news wasn't very exciting, but it is to me *LOL* and I just had to share it!
I enrolled in a patchwork and quilting course a few months after we left Melbourne and moved to regional Victoria, mainly so I could get out of the house and do something different (I was pregnant at the time). I learnt how to hand-piece a sampler quilt, and this week I finally finished hand-quilting it! No work of art, that's for sure, but you've got to start somewhere!
Our group of Creswick Quilters are holding our first ever Quilt Show this weekend in the Bill Huntley room at John Curtin Aged Care, Creswick. It's for a great cause, as all proceeds go to the hospital. I'll be there on Saturday if you want to drop by and have a giggle at us. Phew, soooo glad I finished mine in time!
Now let me see, there was some more news…. now what was it?
oh THAT's right….
did I mention that I earned the Stampin' Up! Incentive Trip to Hamilton Island this week?
*giggle*
Thank you Stampin' Up!
I'll have a lot more to say on that on Sunday after the quilt show is over 🙂
