Wow what a great weekend I ve just had - if you cast your mind back 12 months, a group of us spent the first weekend in June 2010 at Mt Tenandra - about 3 hours drive due west of here. Anyway we were back there again this weekend and what a wonderful time we had. Friendship, fun, laughter, great food, walks in the fresh air, a glass of Pink or 2 and lots of sewing.
I was organised and had cut up all 40 fat quarters I received last year for my birthday in our birthday fat quarter swap - into hundreds of 2 1/2" squares . Here they are as 9 patch blocks
Mack came to visit and he decided that my quilt in progress was just the place to have a nap. i did however get all these rows back into order and sewn together
Nicole my darling daughter, was our chef for the weekend - she served up yummy delicious meals
For years I have wanted to re create this card into a quilt, so using a Bali Pop, I was determined to at least get the centre together before turning the sewing machine off at midnight.
And here are my very dear friends whom I spent the weekend with, Peg, Alison, myself, Dale, Fairy Girl, Nicole and Donna, along with our achievements for the weekend.
It truely was a weekend to cherish, thanks girls
Kerry
So many of my dearest Blogland friends - thanks, Kerry♥

Oh gee, Kerry, it looks like you've had a great time...I am loving the look of your project...what a simple formula....I would have cut the little centre squares out individually...derr....wouldn't have known that trick!!....you are so clever...All the sewing work looks beautiful all lined up....when Chooky posted the wine on Friday night I thought the sewing was just a 'furffy'!!!...lol...

Sounds like a fantastic weekend and if Donna was there I expect there was lots of talking.

Looks like a lot of sewing was done in between the drinking and chatting :)
