Our Crafting Day out and the garden

Hi all

Hope you are all well, sorry for being AWOL, but things have been busy here (not complaining nice to have the work at the factory) then been doing more gardening whilst the ground is soft lol!  Paving is next on the list so we have all been busy drawing the pattern of the flags, we are going with a checker board made bigger so snakes and ladders can be played and I may have a butterfly pattern under the washing line.  Definately not enough hours in the day LOL!  So been too tired to craft.

Rosanna and I had a day out and went to the Craft and Quilting Show in Melbourne, FANTASTIC day we had so many talented people out there.  We each took three classes, the first we made these very blingy watches, bet you know whose is whose lol!  I then had a go at beading (first time) quite chuffed managed this much of a Lariat necklace, while Rosanna made a T-Shirt Bag, then she made a beautiful bookmark and I went and made the T-Shirt Bag, we managed a little bit of shopping too, we have decided next year we definately have to go for two days at least!
