Happy Saturday

A weekend of Craft Fair & some garden beautifying is planned hereabouts.
Probably not much sewing with family visiting from interstate ( sewing space becomes guest room ) & a daughter home from London for a few weeks !!!

But I have joined the Sewn Launch Party give away . Go see what the fuss is about & join up !!

I am offering a yummy Layer Cake fabric pack as my give away , to enter post a comment here & then go check it out .
The winner can choose from Dandelion Girl by Fig Tree Quilts or Cotton Blossoms by Bonnie & Camille.
Winner is drawn on June 8th .







Have a fine weekend

Friday Sunset on the river was worth adding this picture

    I'd probably choose the Cotton Blossoms (such lovely colours!), since I have the pieces of a Dandelion Girl lap quilt in my stash/closet. Should really finish that... Anyway, please add me to the hat! :)
