Cake :)

Well it was our lovely friend Jenny's birthday this week so we had cupcakes :) which were delicious!!

We also did a lot of chatting, putting the world to rights and even managed a bit of sewing :) lets see what we got up to,


 
Maggie brought her blouse with her today, but she was un happy with the length
so this clever cookie took up the back :)
 

Maureen popped in to work on her beautiful blue flower quilt
it's really looking stunning!!! 
 
 
Cathy has been working on her Linus quilts

 
 Irene has been working with this beautiful purple fabric
 
 
Chris has added some fantastic fabric in the heart shape to
applique quilt :) 
 

Marian also spent the day with us this week, and is making this beautiful bag
for her friend in Holland
 


This is where she has got to and its looking fantastic!
 
 
She has even put in this clever pocket!!
 

 
And me well I finished quilting my Linus quilt
 
We have a little Tar Dar for our dear friend Cathy, for months she has been attempting to clean out her sewing machine on her own, (well it is sometimes a little fiddly) but Cathy is a very determined person and this week she has done it all by her self :)
Well done Cathy!!!
Tar Dar!!!! 
 
that's it for another week
 
see you soon
