It’s been a while that I have been blogging. A lot has happened.
On Thursday 22 of May went to Yati in Morayfield and showed her the design which I had in mind to make for her. The quilt goes over the lounge suit and she wants also quilts going over the armrests. Will stitch those to the side of the quilt. She liked the design and I calculated how much fabric I would need.

In between all this I painted the timber for the pergola for the second time.
On the Monday Graeme called, he was coming on Wednesday to put up the pergola.





He finished on Thursday in the afternoon. Now I have to paint it another time and then I get sheeting fixed on top of the pergola, so I can sit underneath it in summer.



Started cutting the fabric for Yati’s quilt and finished it before Friday, when I was going to a quilting retreat where I could stitch it together.

For the retreat I had still to get a mug so bought one in Browns Plains and went then to Linda. We went from her place in the afternoon when Lennert her husband was home. It took us 2 hours to get to Highfields.
Settled in our bedroom, each person had a bedroom. Beautiful accommodation.







The space in the sewing room was not so good. We had to share one table and with 2 sewing machines on it, you have not much space, but we managed.





It was good I had everything pre-cut. The top is nearly finished the blocks were all stitched together and have now to do the rows.



Last Sunday there was in the city a Book fest from Liveline and bought several books.

These are some of the books I have bought.
