Prezzy.........

Gosh I love the mail............I do only get it 2 times a week it I love it.............you never know what may turn up in the mail..........like this Rosalie Quinlan Designs bag pattern..................as I was to busy talking didn't see any of these bags at Girls Day in the Country  my lovely new blog friend Cardygirl sent me this pattern..............now I did tell you about her when she was very new but she has a wonderful blog and does lots of lovely stitching...........she has a beautiful dresdan plate quilt up tonight and I have just ordered a dresdan plate ruler......

.......anyway back to the subject............the pattern is Nellie's Sewing Bag.............looks great so will have to try and fit that one in soon.........(with the mountain of other things I have to make)


Autumn is definitely in the air and last week we had some quite cool weather................I lit the fire for the first time and yesterday I snapped this shot of the crepe myrtle out the front...............they just have the best autumn colours..............

Also signed up for a few swaps............Once Upon a Quilt has a repros nine patch swap (sorry Australia only unless your my best buddy o/s and we work something out)..............only problem I don't have any of the fabrics...........no problems Lurline and Christine are helping me out to get started...........thanks so much girls...............very much appreciated.............

Also signed up for a pincushion swap hosted by Quilt at Home in the Netherlands.............it is an international swap..........

Check out the girls blogs as they both do beautiful work.............

.........take care til next time.............

I love the look of that bag, and I'm off to check out that 9 patch swap - I do have a soft spot for those and havent' done a swap in ages.
