Here are a few photos from the show. Chris seemed to be keen on the orange cars today and took quite a few photos of them. Our new car will most likely be red but not too many red ones entered.

Friday Night Sewing, Brisbane Hot Rod Show, Christmas in July Swap.
Last night I joined FNWF and this is what I managed to get done.
I have had this small kit for quite a few years so decided it was about time I made it up. The photo on the left are the 2" strips I cut out and stitched together to make the background. On the right is a photo of how the finished wall hanging should look and in the bottom photo are all the blocks cut from the panel ready to be stitched to the background. I was on a bit of a roll but couldn't have a late night as I had to be up early this morning for a trip to the Brisbane Hot Rod Show with Chris. I was still pleased with the start I made.

Also this week I joined Cheryll's Christmas in July Swap so go here to read about it and if you would like to sign up you can do so by leaving a comment on her blog post. Cheryll's swaps are always great fun and it is a great way of meeting other people who like to blog and have similar interests.
Well, now I am going to check out what other people got up to last night. Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs..........
