I had a lovely catch up yesterday at Patch and Quilt in Gisborne with sewing friends.
Most of us go back to when there used to be quarterly get togethers at Mill Rose Cottage. They were great get togethers and where the city girls bonded with the Gisborne girls. Many of the originals have moved on to other things for whatever reasons and there is still a small group that get together. Sadly most of the bloggers amongst us no longer blog, I think I may be the only one to and even then I seem to forget to get fotos of the day to blog about!
Mary's shop is always a great place to visit and you can count on a laugh or two.
Sadly I didn't do much crafting as my water bottle leaked over the stitcheries I had planned to work on and it also wet all the pages in the folder of patterns. I worked a little on a stale project that is well on the way to a completion so it all worked out well.
A few purchases were made of course
This has only a few more rows to go..... My favourite scarf pattern, I have used many times. This will go to a work colleague. Barb was admiring the pattern which coincidentally was purchased from one of the early Mill rose get togethers.
A happy Mother's day to all those mums out there.
Tonight the masses will converge for feasting and merriment lol
Happy days!!
