Pincushion Progress, Hot Rod Weekend

Just a quick post today as my hubby and I are heading  to Toowoomba after lunch for a hot rod weekend held by the Toowoomba Hot Rodders Club.  This is an annual event and will be our 8th year attending. It is always a great weekend with lots of activities finishing with a Show and Shine of the cars on Sunday morning in central Toowoomba. Hopefully the weather will be nice and not pouring with rain as it was last weekend when I went up for the Girls Stitch In.
Chris is just putting the finishing touches to the car by giving it a quick wash and polish. Hope it hasn't been a waste of time for him as the rain is still hanging around.
I am taking a bit of embroidery with me so hope I will get a chance to do some whilst away. I am also hoping to get to the Quilters Angel for a quick fabric fix.
Last night I finished my stitchery for the SKOW pin cushion. I stitched it in a purple colour as this goes with the fabrics I am using. It is such a cute stitchery. Will be able to finish putting it together next week.


So will be back on Sunday with an update.....  Till then ....... Have a great weekend.....
