Yamba Weekend.

We enjoyed our weekend away  at Yamba and as usual it went very quickly. We stayed at The Big 4 caravan /camping park and were lucky enough to have a small cabin for our accommodation. Over 200 cars there for the weekend so you can imagine it was quite noisy when all those hot rods went for their nightly cruise around the park. We were on the corner and the whole cabin seemed to vibrate as they went past.
Top, our cabin.     Bottom, Our friend going for a cruise, not sure what look he was trying to achieve. This bird was attracted by his reflection and kept pecking at the car, the owner wasn't too pleased though.
On Friday, we had a bit of a drive around the area. 
Saturday morning and the Show and Shine was on in the main streets. 
The weekend was great and I also managed to get to two quilt shops whilst there, one at Maclean which we found by accident on Friday (a big thank you to my hubby for pointing it out) and the one in Yamba on Saturday. I bought a few bits and pieces to add to my stash.

Must have been having a blue and red day. The bottom fabric is a laminated one from Riley Blake so maybe a bag from that. I just love touching this as it is so soft.
Well must go, hope to get back later tonight and catch up on all your blog posts.
Till next time....... Happy Stitching...........

    Looks like a fantastic weekend (with the added bonus of quilt shops too!)

    I think I see a red and aqua quilt in your future judging by some of those purchases.
