Yes, I have just had two days worth of fun and stitching. (In that order. This you will understand when you see how much stitching I actually did.)
Sarah always runs such a fantastic retreat. Thank you Sarah. Our tutors were fantastic. Thank you
Helen Stubbings,
Gail Pan,
Janelle Wind and
Natalie Ross. They were busy all weekend sharing techniques with us and chatting and laughing with us too. I got to sit next to
Pip (One of my favourite bloggers!) on Saturday and had a fun time chatting to her. I had met her briefly in real life before so knew it would be a good day when I saw her at my table. Then today I got to sit with
Annette, Gerri and Kerry. I didn't know them before today, but enjoyed them very much because they are from Melbourne (ish!) and told me all about Melbourne patchwork shops! A most productive day. "Networking", as Julie would say. (I sat with Julie and Karan both days) So, without further ado, my two day's worth of stitching:
And more importantly, I did have a wonderful time!

Very nice Kris. Was good to catch up. I didn't have a lot to show for my one day but certainly picked up a few needleturn tricks! It was good fun wasn't it?

It was a great weekend wasn't it. I am really wishing that I could go to pirie to see the girls again, but October is a bit full at the moment. I am very happy with my Sunday achievements.
I gather this is going to be a pin cushion when it's finally made up ..... it's very pretty.
Sounds like a wonderful weekend! I LOVE that stitchery!
