Shepparton CraftAlive

We're all setup and ready to go for Shepparton CraftAlive this weekend. We've got lots for all to see and do.  Demonstrations on English paper piecing, patchwork fabric from on $10 mtr, quilt kits, quilt panels, stitcheries, and so much more.  See you all there this Fricay, Saturday & Sunday at Shepparton Show Grounds.

Paul's graduation parade

Congratulations to our oldest boy Paul on his Navy graduation.  Next week he is off to Sydney for about 6 months to begin his career training.  Then he is off to see the world.

Handy Hussif

Finally finished the Handy Hussif, now I just have to let the holes in my fingertips heal up to start the next project.

A small job to do

We've just received 16 huge boxes of the latest range of knitting yarn.  Now we just have to re-arrange the wool section to make room for it all.  As usual, I've ordered way too much.

Day 4 - Do we have to go home?

Well after almost 4 days with great food, great weather, great company, it sadly came to an end. We all had to go home and do our real jobs.  Mine is raising 5 boys aged 14, 18, 18, 18, & 20, 1 husband, 2 cats and Crash the Boxer.  I can't really call the shop a job, it's more like a retreat.

Here's what we did Sunday.  A little more applique using one of Sue's basket templates.

Shop Owner retreat Day 3

Had another wonderful day stitching and learning new techniques.

Today we worked on the 6 pointed star, followed by needle turn applique, then some reverse applique
