BIRTHDAY QUILT AND FROSTY FLAKES WALL HANGER

hi all, have been under the weather but feeling better now so decided to show my latest finishes.
This is the quilt I made for my GD`s 4th birthday she is a bright and bubbly little girl and likes flowers so when i saw this pattern I new it would be for her. She will get it next week along with a game of Hungry Hippo, a game her mum played as a child.


I also have finished my Frosty Flakes wall hanger from the free pattern from Dawn Hay Designs and I am very pleased with the results. DH said and where does that one go. i said it only goes up for about 6 weeks for the Xmas period and i will take down a small wall hanging to do so and give it a clean and a rest.
I have started a new project for the twins for Xmas and i am loving it. It has some techniques that I havent used before and when finished i will give you a peek. Gotta go now as its time for morning tea . Bye Judy

A SHORT BREAK AND SOME CUTIES

Last week DH and I visited Victor Harbor for a short break with DD`s family. We took our twin GD`s for a stroll along the beachfront, did some shopping, lots of talking and playing games with the girls and plenty of sight seeing.

Here is a view across to granite island. It was a little cold but we still enjoyed our walk.


We watched a handler hitch uo Carmen to the tram to begin the daily tours over to the island.


We wore the girls out running along the beach and playing in the playground and they fell asleep on the way home .
I cant tell which is Chloe or hayley as they are very alike.

This is Emma my youngest GD who has been in Adelaide for a couple of days. She really loved her fairy costume and wanted to wear the wings all day. She ran around saying "I pretty" and was very cute.



She also wanted everyone to see her wings. Must go now as i am going to the Quilters Guild meeting tonight. bye for now.
