teenagers birthday party............

Since the Chookshed turned 13 we were all acting like teenagers and took lots of selfies..........we had fun playing around...........you'll see below..........and I shared toooo many but hey it was so much fun and we got lots of laughs..........and that's what life's about right..........fun and laughter............
 Chapel Street is making progress on the layout..........even had a bit more on the wall but had to sort out a few more fabrics so need to include those in the mix..........
me and Suze..........
Kate cut and laid out a quilt..........all ready to sew up..............
She also worked on her Diddles quilt...............some of you will remember Diddles............
Suze cut these drunkards path blocks and got quilt a few blocks made...............so pretty..............
This is one photo.............and yes we are in it twice............
I made the binding for this group quilt from Scrub Stitchin'............love the quilting by Sandy @ Shiralee Stitches...........

I really worked a lot on binding............I attached 2 and I made 3.......
Suze found a rock to use as a prop to take our selfies................
It was the most glorious weekend...............
Who would have known winter started yesterday......
Miss Jules added the borders to this quilt............

Suze and Miss Jules had the same charm pack as it turned out...............The quilts will look very different..............
Enjoying the sunset..............
I missed getting any photos of Annette's projects...........bugger.....
One of my favourite photos from the weekend.............
So good to be back celebrating the Chookshed Birthday............
All to quickly it was time for the girls to pack up and head home.........
Another great Chookshed birthday.........
Hope you found some time to sew over the weekend also.........
Catch you later............

Belated Chookshed Birthday Wishes Chooky!! Oh it looks like you had a fabulous time - so many laughs and smiles in those photos - and you even got some sewing done - awesome!! (Great to see the SS quilt in there getting its binding, too!)

Definitely looks like you all had fun at the teenager's birthday party. Maybe next time (which will still be an early teenager birthday) chaperones should be included. ;)
Very clever photography skills to have you all on both sides of the road in one photo.
And the "propped on a rock" photo begs the question, were you trying to do a "spiral" (roller skating term for the pose), or pretending to be superheroes who haven't quite mastered flying, or just doing balance exercises? LOL
