It’s taken me this long to recover from our trip to Perth and to find a few minutes to put this post together! And I did my back in lugging the excess luggage that arrived by post on Friday morning!! (Just kidding….about the back that is!)
Wow, what a time. The bank balance is a little depleted and so is the sleep bank. Katherine, Abigail and I arrived home late and I finally slipped into bed at 3am….then I had to get up and go to work! We had a wonderful time and didn’t waste a single minute.
Lot’s of lovely sewing and time spent investing in our very special friendship. Janelle and Katherine finished their Zig Zags, mine’s still waiting to be finished….tomorrow.
Abigail had a lovely time too… hee hee isn’t she gorgeous.
While at Paper Fusion we saw the most gorgeous framed paper art, we had to buy up a few paper pads and instead of sewing my quilt top together like I should have I popped into IKEA and got a frame and made this….
Katherine and I are also part of a group we call “Secret Women’s Business”. We each take a turn organising a girls night out. Mine happened to be the Saturday night after our return from Perth. So taking some inspiration from my big frame I did a scaled down version. The girls all did a great job and went home with a little frame of their very own.
Didn’t they do a great job, so simple and yet so effective.
One last photo just for Rachel…..thanks for letting me stay in your lovely room…..smooooochy smooch :) XXxxOOoo
Love ya

It does look like a very impressive pile of fabric when you peek over it like that Kylie. I am still trying to find spots to put all mine. I wonder what the postie thought was in all those packages?! Thanks for a great night on Saturday!
I can't believe you made it in to work Kylie. What a busy time you had with the sewing sisters. I love your framed art too.

LOve the paper craft in the frames. They look so effective. Looks like you had a successful time fabric shopping!!! What a great idea to have a girly evening on a regular basis. I love reading all the bogs on this sight it provides great inspiration.
Oh my gosh, what a fabric pile! There is so much possibility in that! :)
You girls are just ace! I love that you spend quality time together doing crafty and secret women's business.
And those frames are just too cute. I saw your link on 'a spoonful of sugar' and thought I'd pop over.
Spoonful of Sugar sent me over -- that little framed project is just adorable! Thanks for the great idea!
