finishes & things

During the week i worked on the robes i mentioned cutting out in the previous post. I got all 3 done in time to hand them to the people wanting them.
Not hard to make just time consuming. Saturday i went on a day trip out to to Toogoolawah. Our patchwork group was meeting up in the backyard of a member of the Toogoolawah patchwork group. A very lovely day out despite the freezing wind. One of the ladies had a trailor full of patchwork goodies to look at. I picked up a couple of gadgets & buttons.
After lunch we all then went to a patchwork shop in a shed on someone's property.  All i bought there were some boxes for my DMC threads. Sunday back to cooking. :)
Lumberjack cake,
fantail muffins,
Tim Tam balls. So yummy. Today i finally finished my runner which was supposed to be done for 1 Xmas item a month. Better late than never.

Happy Stitching,

Hi Jeanette! Love your name and it just happens to be mine too and it's even spelled the same! I'm your newest follower and I have to ask - what's a lumberjack cake? Love your runner. I have Christmas place mats that I started several years ago, maybe I should drag them out and finally finish them up!
