Kiah's 21st.

My grand-daughter had her 21st birthday party on Saturday night. It was a Harry Potter themed party as Kiah has loved Harry Potter since the books first came out.
Kiah had two cakes. The first one was from the Cheesecake Factory and the second cake was one she asked me to make. A similar cake to the one Hagrid made for Harry for his eleventh birthday. Forgot to take a photo before my 10 year old great-nephew had a piece.
The house was well decorated with spiders,broomsticks and a brick wall (painted on a sheet) to enter through to get to Platform 3 & 3/4.
Kiah's Photo Wall - lots of memories here.

It was a great night, the above are just a few of the photos taken.

Sunday Stitchers, Turning 21.......

Last Sunday was our monthly meeting for Sunday Stitchers. We had another wonderful day enjoying each other's company.  This time we finally received back our own row along quilt. Unfortunately I still can't show the top as we have one more row to do before we reveal our complete top to the other girls who didn't participate. The new row will contain some sort of embroidery, not sure what I will do as yet but we have until our final get together in November to complete it. This will add the 8th row to the quilt. To say I love my top is an understatement. It is amazing how all the tops looked so different.  I think everyone felt the same way as I do and loved how the theme for each row was adapted by the maker to suit the quilt they were working on.
This is a peek at my my first row which contained a bit of embroidery 

A bit of Show & Tell above and below.  Jeanette's Gossip in the Garden top and her Gail Pan Xmas top.


Maree's Gossip top and her very cute Hexagon bag.

Dee's Chicken baby quilt, very cute.
On Wednesday, I headed down the coast for the night to have a special birthday dinner with my son's family. My grand-daughter, Kiah, turned 21 and it was lovely to celebrate with her on her actual birthday. The photo below was taken a couple of months ago as I forgot to take my camera  on Wednesday night. She is having a Harry Potter themed birthday party next weekend. I raided the op shops yesterday to find some clothes to wear. I am going as the pink lady and managed to get some pink clothing to wear from head to toe.
Well that's it for me today. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Till next...... Happy Stitching.............
