I, along with many of my blogging and on-line friends, had a fabulous weekend in Sydney at the Quilt Show. Well, the Quilt Show was the excuse for all of us to get together. Met some long-time friends for the first time and met some new friends - truly wonderful time.
The next photo I borrowed from
Peg. This photo was taken after dinner on Friday night. As I've recently taken on a temp assignment I wasn't able to make it to Sydney for the lunch-time blog meet so it was lovely to be able to catch up with a lot of the girls at dinner.
Saturday morning I met up with more of the girls from our on-line group at breakfast then headed off to the Quilt Show. I took about 4 photos all day. Too much to see, too many shops to visit, too many people to chat with. I ran into one girl from our stitching group and two girls I went to school with.

Sunday I took my roomies (Helen, Jenny and Teresa) in to the City to have a wander around some shops and arcades before they headed off to the airport. These photos are from
Teresa's blog.

Some of the goodies I bought at the Quilt Show. The scarves and Posh Pendants are presents for friends and the rest is stuff that I absolutely need. I think Anni's little turtle pincushion would be the most popular item at the show - it's so sweet, I had to buy a kit along with nearly everyone I know.
