Well Saturday saw me turn another year older and wow what a great day I had. My very bestest friend - Tanya - and her daughter Jessica arrived to spend the weekend with me. They joined Geoffrey, Nicole Josh and myself out for lunch in Nundle, before spending the afternoon sewing in the shop - what a great way to spend an afternoon. Then we had more friends arrive for dinner and a few drinks - these are the lovely flowers I recieved from my dearest friend - aren't they just gorgeous.
I also have a photo of all the fat 1/4's I recieved in the Fat 1/4 birthday swap - a big thank you to all my friends who sent them to me, I just love them all - they look so nice all in a neat pile - it seems ashame to have to cut into them but I do have a few ideas - just need a spare day or two to sew.
Then to continue the Birthday on, my Tuesday ladies had a great big cake for me today - then they presented me with a bag full of pieced traditional blocks that they had made for me - the blocks aren't for my birthday they are to celebrate my Business Award win a couple of weeks back - you know the good thing is that I don't actually have a sampler quilt of my own so I look forward to making this quilt up - once again I have some ideas. Thanks heaps - you are all truly a wonderful bunch of ladies - I love having you all here every week.
Oh well I wish Birthdays could last alot longer then one day - but gosh they seem to come around very quickly - hugs to all those that sent me Birthday wishes
Your friend Kerry
