Saturday i was off on a bus trip with Vision Patchwork group. After leaving our pick-up point we headed west up the range to Gatton our first stop. Lovely patchwork shop there. Morning tea supplied by Gail & her staff. Despite the incentive of 25% off nothing really caught my eye at all. I wandered around & spotted some orange fabric & a repro which i bought as fat 1/4’s
Then i mentioned to a fellow tourer about looking for repro’s & she said where she saw some fat 1/4’s. Back i went to look & discovered these. They’ll all look great in my quilts.
Time to leave & head further up the range to Toowoomba. It’s the flower festival time there & as we headed to our next stop all the gorgeous Spring flowers were everywhere to see. Stopped at a quilt show but silly me forgot my camera. Some very gorgeous quilts on display there & a few vendors to visit
These lovely pinks & browns caught my eye on Nikki's stall.
We then had lunch & afterwoods headed out to Highfields, a small town outside of Toowoomba. This stop was to a bead shop. After that we went to the “Village Green” also at Highfields & visited a patchwork shop & a choccy shop. At the patchwork shop i bought these gorgeous fabrics.
Spots & Chrissy fabrics. Sorry no photo of the choccies all was eaten after i got home. :)One final stop was at a church. Not a lot of got off the bus as we we very tired by this time. I did pop off & look at the plant stalls outside the church & came back with 2 plants. Time to head home a very weary but happy traveller.
Sunday i got up to do this:
I’ve got my sewing room back. :) YAY.
I’m so happy. Now all my stuff is in the one room i may feel more like creating. :)
