Weekend workshop

I've not had time to get around blogland, I've been busy with visitors and I've been to a weekend workshop. Do you recognise this person? It's Kellie from Don't Look Now. Lucky me and double lucky me because I did the workshop with my daughter who came all the way from New Zealand to join in the fun.

Retro Mummy, Corrie did a fantastic job of organising the weekend and it all went like clockwork, have a look at her blog to see more pictures and news of the weekend.

This is Corrie's cushion which Kellie was demonstrating on and the level to which we were all trying to mimic. Of course it's all about the practice and experience, there was no getting around that.

This is my humble wee cushion, I didn't quite have enough puff to get the quilting finished.

That's Corrie on the left and Kellie on the right, two gorgeous ladies.

Here's a group photo of the rest of us. That's my DD, Amelia on the bottom left and I'm on the bottom row, 2nd from the right. This is the very first workshop that Amelia has ever done and her excitement was contagious.

We had a practice at some different quilting designs that Kellie demonstrated and drew up for us. I've promised myself to spend at least ten minutes a day practicing. You can hold me to that.

Amelia bought her youngest with her, I'm allowed to show a picture of 11 month old Noah. Note the food all over the floor.

He'such a dear wee boy, so easy going. If his eyes look funny, it's because he's got a squint that needs correcting, He even has the cutest glasses to wear. His Dad was left at home to look after the three girls.

Amelia and Noah are going home on Friday so we have a lot to fit in before then. I'll be back when things get back to normal because as you know, there's no normal when there's a baby around.
