Lots Happening

Progress has been made on "Floral Bouquet" - all the blocks are sewn and have been sorted into rows.

"Floral Bouquet" blocks sorted into rows and packed into storage bags
Last night I sewed the first 2 rows together.  I love how quickly this quilt comes together once all the components are made.

"Floral Bouquet" - rows 1 and 2
I started quilting "Vintage Valentine" last Sunday afternoon but it needs to be put aside for a while so I can get on with some secret sewing - a present for a family member having a large "0" birthday next month.  I'm hoping I can make a good start over the weekend.  More secret stitching is going on at lunchtimes for some swap presents.

Secret Stitching
Lots of fun coming up in the next few weeks - friends coming over for dinner on Saturday night; a shopping trip to Queensland with my dear friend Barbara next week when we will catch up with dear Diann and her daughter Angela as well as see "Wicked"; a wedding in the Hunter Valley the following weekend.
