A morning out.....

I have been a member of Maleny Arts and Group for nearly 6 yrs....... I am part of the Textile Group,  and yesterday ( Thursday ) I was invited to go along to the Quilters Group by Kaylene......The Quilters Group normally meet on a Monday morning........they had booked Pauline Rodgers to come along and give a talk and demonstration about Gadgets that she has available.......what an interesting morning.....

I have doing patchwork and quilting for a long time and seen a lot of products available....a few gadgets that have been around for a long time that I never knew how they worked......I learnt about them yesterday........ I suppose that when you do workshop with different tutors you generally only use what that tutor uses and Pauline also  expanded the uses of those products....... I was impressed and of course bought a couple of new rulers.....the first being a non slip 6 1/2" x 12 1/2" yeah sounds boring but it is supposed to be the best......and the other is multipurpose curved ruler.......I'm looking forward to using both of them in new projects.....

And the best part of the morning was.....it started to rain and it was good rain.......we have not had good rain for many months.....our vege garden is just a mess only have a few struggling onions left.......I have been nursing the flower garden though.......I was given some Lisianthans (not sure about the spelling ) we call them Poor man Roses....by my sister after Dads funeral........

I made a little garden for them mixing some compost to boost the soil and then mulched them with some sugar cane mulch..... so far they seem to be surviving....

I came home to find that Tilly has also been keeping herself amused...

What can I say........

Until next time

Happy Stitching ----------Cathy
