With a heaps of fantastic projects to work on over the weekend, great food, good company and heaps of give-aways everyone had a wonderful time I have received so many phone calls and emails over the last couple of days so I am in no doubt that everyone had a great time.'
Our hectic and exciting weekend may be over but today not only brought with it the Melbourne Cup.....and no I didn't win....but also the Launch of Quiltaid and so far everyone seems to be really getting into it

We have Gail Pan's and Brenda Ryan's block available which are both beautiful
we also have our finishing kit available which is being very well received and is strictly limited so if you would like our finishing kit it would pay not to sit back as they are going quiet quickly

It has been a while since I have posted in blogland there has been so much going on.
Firstly for my exciting news, last night at 12.30 after a long labour my beautiful Schnauzer Heidi was taken to the vets hospital for a c-section. To our total amazement Heidi returned home an hour later very tired with 1 single male puppy......Yogi (we reckon he will look like a little bear with that endless supply of Mum's milk all to himself) as he has been affectionatley named is absolutley gorgeous looks just like his mum, I don't know that dad is overly impressed with his offspring but I am sure in time they will get along and have lots of fun together
Mum and Yogi are getting along wonderfully I took this pic with my phone when he was about 2 hours old so its not real flash.....sorry:)
On another exciting note as you all know "Lily" our A1 Longarm is in residence at the shop and she has started earning her keep everything is wonderful with Lily and she is ready to quilt your quilt tops
