The Christmas Stitch-in will now be held on Saturday 15 August. I've been merrily stitching away on one of the projects with ideas and plans for lots more buzzing around in my head.
I hope you can join me for a fun filled day of festive creativity.

Only a week to go before Craft Alive Shepparton. Lots to do before then. The So Handy Pouch kits I did yesterday. And no your eyes aren't playing tricks - they're available in blue!
The rotary cutter, cutting mat and ruler for the pouch will be available at the show.

More often it's not 'Where's my needle' rather 'What have I done with my needle' because no matter how careful I think I'm being I somehow manage to misplace it. It's never far away, it's just hiding underneath a piece of fabric, amongst the threads or tucked safely in the fabric I'm stitching on. (Mmm, yes the last one is a tad embarassing.) Having just finished a largish project and 'misplaced' the applique needle numerous times I thought I'd make myself a needle-rest; someplace to pop my needle if I was called away.
Now I just have to remember to use it!

Sit n Sew is on again next Tuesday 19 May 10am - 1pm at Waves Aquatic Centre, Wodonga.
An aquatic centre does seem a rather odd choice of venue for a get together of girls who love to sew, but let me assure you the room has what I consider the most important requirement, lots of lovely natural light. Oh and heating too, you wouldn't have known it was freezing outdoors today.
Bring along whatever project your currently working on and share a giggle and chat.
Swimmers are not required!
There's retail therapy too!

This is my favourite club! It's great fun watching and helping the girls choose fabrics. Some plan to have a pile of coordinated cushions, while others are happy making individual ones.
Belinda's cushions
Deb's blue pillow and cushion cover. All that's left for Deb to do is finish the quilt!
Gabi's red cover for her daughters couch and Bronwyn's pillow cover.
Gabi, Leanne & Glynis are using the Tilda fabric. Soft and pretty!
Miranda's Birdie cushion and Karen's funky Weekender.
Next time I will take photos of the backs - they are just as beautiful as the fronts!
The classes at Avonleigh are full, but you can still sign up for the club online.
