Only 1 finish for OPAM

Where has this month gone? Thought I would get heaps done but not to be, so this is my only finish for  April.

A Christmas stitchery by Rosalie Quinlan.
I have also completed another stitchery by Rosie that we were given at Let's get Stitched in March when she was a surprise designer. I am thinking I will put it in a stitching hoop so just have to find time to go out and search for one the right size. Rosie added my name and hers on the bottom so this makes it more special to me although she did this for most of the ladies at the stitching day. She is one gorgeous lady.

My hubby had some time off as well so we headed off on a mid-week hot rod run to Tarampa pub for lunch (about and 90 minutes away).
It was a great day so here are some photos of us waiting for our lunch and the cars lined up outside the pub.

Well must go as I want to finish the quilting on a table topper today. Then I can work on the binding tomorrow night for FNWF. Sign up is now on over at Cheryll's blog so if you want to join in, head on over to here. 
Till next time ................ Hugs...........

A block, Redwork and a Day Out.

Yesterday I finished stitching together my 3rd block of Aiming for Accuracy.  I am so pleased with the result as the points look pretty good to me. Have started on Block 4 so that should be done by tomorrow. Block 5 is trimmed and ready to go as well. So I am on a roll at the moment so lets hope that keeps going.

Block 2 with Block 3 underneath.

I have also completed my Friendship quilt red work stitchery and think the Hugs and Kisses Cottage Garden thread looks lovely. Still have a couple of applique blocks to finish to catch up on this one.

Today, Chris and I played hooky and went on a mid-week hot rod run.  Only 6 cars went but it was a great day. We met at Yatala for morning tea and with Chris leading the way, we headed out to the Dougandan Hotel just outside Boonah about an hour away. I tried to get Chris to stop at Maynards in Boonah (lots of quilting fabrics found there) but couldn't convince him that this was a good idea.
This is where we ended up.

The cars had quite a few  people stopping to check them out.  Ours is the yellow one in the middle.

This is where we had a lovely lunch before getting back in our cars and heading for home.

It was pretty chilly in the hot rod this morning so I got to wear my woolly scarf and hat that I bought when we were in Tassie in March but by the time we had lunch it was quite warm.
Must go now as hubby wants his turn on the computer.  Tomorrow it's back to sewing.  Till next time.......Happy Stitching..........
