I'm back home..............not a lot of words..........
the last couple of weeks have been like a yoyo..........
We meet up with Maureen at a random park along the way (as I mentioned last post)............
Found the dream location for a Quilt retreat business...........need to win lotto........or find a friend with lots of money..........succeeded in neither so far..........
visited a stunning old homestead "Glengallen Homestead" who clearly also needs lots more money spent on her...........
loved the stair case............
the features speak for themselves.........
ate to much food.......
enjoyed wonderful company........
actually used a sewing machine........again......
ate more food...........
took my partner in crime all things quilty........
chopped fabric for Susan and myself........
more sewing..........
required therapy so brought fabric - probably cost less
loved the company and being inspired by everyone's projects.............
chain piecing for Chapel Street
worked on Starburst............
more food.........chocolate mug cake and macadamia icecream..........channeled Janet...........please note a tiny ruler........
although the pieces maybe to big for her liking..........I may also regret this when I start to size them up......
came home a day earlier then planned and missed a sleep over with Annette.........
Also enjoyed 2 inches of rain and hoping for a few more - lets see if we can fill the dam...........unbelievably we have rain forecast for the next week..........it is possible.....
Have a great weekend..........
I'll be watching the grass grow.......It's a sight to behold..........
Catch you later.....

Looked like a fun retreat.,wishing for rain
it was a wonderful time with you - I am always happy to help you create a mess!
Still trying for Lotto / Powerball.
Looks like you had an absolute blast.
oh chooky you look like you are having tons of fun and so glad...i'm sure it was a tonic to you!
What a fabulous fun time. 2 inches! How good is that. Fingers crossed for more.
Looks like you all had a fun time. I would be very happy to blow the rain clouds from over me to you any day.
Love the old homestead! Lots of good rain here too....was hoping you would get some. Now that's what I call a good time!
It all looks like great fun. xx
Glad you had a great time, good luck raising the funds you need, great projects at the retreat, hope you got more rain, very hot in Perth.
Looks like a fantastic retreat was had.
I hope you get all the rain you need without floods. Full dams are a wonder to behold, overflowing dams are a worry unless there is another dam to fill downstream.
Great fun - and lots of delicious colours to sew...

Looks like you had a wonderful and productive time - hope the rain comes.
So glad to see you getting to spend time retreating! Looks like a lovely time, and I'm sure amid all the serious sewing business (?), there was plenty of laughter!
Around here the phrase "watching the grass grow" refers to a boring time with nothing happening. But for you that is something to behold--and I'm glad you get to behold it!
I am thrilled to see your little bonus triangles, and the small ruler. If you need a smaller one, I can send it your way!! ;)
Looks like much fun was had in both sewing and eating. Glad it went well & hope you get some more rain too. Take care & hugs.
I disappear from reading blogs and come back to find wonderful, familiar, Scrub Stitchin' faces. What a wonderful read!!!
Wow! A great time had by all. Maybe you can have a rest now lol.
The homestead has the perfect view. The climate would be good as well. I have caught up reading your blog but only making one comment here. I will try to be more diligent with my reading in 2024. You will have to point out the wild orange flowering tree to me one day. So glad you got to go shopping too, i was so sad to miss Glenrose this year. Thanks for planning the zoom.
