Up up and away.....

 Melbourne trip with Heather and family.....




The view from the lounge room on the 50th floor,  right in the centre of Melbourne.....






Lovely to see this street art on the top of the building nearby.....



We had a great meal at a Korean BBQ restaurant, so lovely to enjoy with family....

From the left....

Silly photo with these wonderful people....


I'm very lucky to enjoy time with these 2 young people....




Loved spending time with these 2 gorgeous people.....




It was cold but really Pav I don't think this is the way to get warm.....lol...


A Blue Hawaii drink.....
boy it was good....


Dessert was a bit of a let done....
just ice cream....


Breakfast.....
Just had to take a photo.....



Love these 2 silly people.....
Anthony and Corinne....


The reason we all came to Melbourne was......
Harry Potter of course....
"The Cursed Child " theatre production....


Go Heather.....


Wandering around the city....



A naughty but essential shopping.....

I had a wonderful time....

what a shame it had to come to and end....

A couple of days is better than none at all....

More churn dash.....

 What is better then a churn dash quilt I ask ????

Well maybe 2 churn dash quilts.....

Both of these quilts will be charity quilts when finished......

I will try to keep up with Chooky's SAL plan..... 

8 blocks were needed to be done by the end of June so this one is a little late.....

The other blocks are in a previous post....

I have a new toy ....

a Janome 9450 QP 

so these quilts will be the perfect way to get to know my new machine......

A few adjustments to the machine table are required before it can settle in properly but I can play until that happens.....waiting on a plastic template to arrive....


Well I must away now as more sewing is waiting....

FNWF

 FNWF's seems to come around so quickly.....

I wasn't feeling that great with a sinus infection but Susan gave me a little nudge to get on with my "Flower Garden" project, it is soooo close for the top to be done but getting on with it is such a drag......

Thanks Susan for the push..... I intend to finish it this weekend.....


I'm handstitching the hexies to the border, it is a very big quilt so has been taking wayyyy to long really.... probably due to my slackness.....
If you would like to check out other blogs and see what they got up to then go Cheryll's blog here.....
Thank you Cheryll for hosting another great night of stitching....
