Catch Up Time !

I know I haven’t been here for a while !

So what have I been up too.?

First Off a couple of weeks back I went To Julies Retreat, it was at Edmund Park out the back of Laidley, about 150 k’s drive but well worth it .

Looking down the driveway, The Jacaranda Trees were beautiful.

While at the retreat I made a Stable bag for my niece for her 16th Birthday, She wanted green…..

I think it does look darker in real life  but I love it  and just when I thought I had used most of my Kaffe a friend bought me back lots from Houston, It was kind of a swap I quilted a quilt for her and she gave me the fabric , Thank Leanne I love it !.
