You got some goodies to work on now. I guess we'll never get bored.

Anne Ida said...

Oh, lots of yummy projects you got your hands on during the Girls Day in the Country! I look forward to seeing them done up Donna-style!! :o) I have the patterns for Rosie's cushions, and I really want to make them sometime - especially since my sofa is in need of some new ones :o)

Congratulations to Inger Lise for winning your draw! And thank you for linking to my post about my SBS!!!

Hey Chookyblue! If you find out where to find more time PLEASE let me know! It seems I cross one thing off the 'to do' list and add four to the bottom! Looooove the blue/green fabrics - now why haven't I been able to find those for the quilt I'm designing!!! Loved all the photos - cyber 'show & tell'!! Tee! Hee! Hee! Bear Hugs!

Couldn't we all just do with another 12 hours in each day - but of course you know what'd happen, the rest of the world would never leave us in peace to spend it stitching - oh I wishhhhhhhhhh!

Rose Johnston said...

Leanne said...

There is some serious shopping and homework there.

Lorraine said...

Looks like you've had a ball doing that shopping! If only we had more time we'd all share it around!! Sounds like the "girls day inthe country" is the place to be! You're very lucky to have something close to attend. :) Happy sewing!

Jodie said...

Donna, you know Annie and I are dead jealous of your day in the country. I love everything you bought - you have such good taste

Unknown said...

Those fabrics are so beautiful. I have this Lori Smith pattern!

Anita said...

Some great buys there chooky!!
I have that Sherbet bag pattern, forgot to bring it to get autographed LOL
I did by some fabric to make it though.
So less time on the net and more time sewing - is that the plan?? LOL
