Gerringong Quilt Show...and my Daughter's New Blog!!!

Towards the end of last year we went up to Gerringong to have a look at an Annual Quilt Show...which was not far from this spectacular view!!!
We had lunch in the building on the left...

Here are some of the quilts on show...all pics taken with permission...

The Raffle Quilt...


And look Vicki here is Anne stitching away...
This lady had an amazing stall...full of all sorts of stitcheries...

dolls...

pin cusions...bags...you name it...
She starts stitching about 9.00 am in the morning and goes right through until the evening....
And if I recall right she said it stops her from eating LOL!!!
An awesome lady...You Go Anne!!!










Of course we had to have lunch after all this walking around!!!

Strolling around the village we came across surfboards in a shop there...

along with this sturdy rocking horse!!!

And dig this apron...French style...wraps around and comes down to the knees, how cool is this!!!

My Daughter Jacqueline has started off a blog...and she's keen to blog all the dinners that she makes over a year...Have Fun Darls!!!
And I'm off tomorrow for a few days to a Carerfest...
Put on for Carers...respite organized...meals provided...yoga...massages and meeting other Carers...I'm looking forward to this...it's all happening in Narooma
But also lots to organize for JoJo...notes to Mr Armchair about the routine for JoJo's programmes...But I'm sure I'll be right when I get there!!!
