Lots of Quilting Happening.

I am making very good progress on the next baby quilt. It is raining a lot so I'm getting to stay inside and concentrate on it. ( will show photos when finished. ) 
I am also making steady progress on felt ball # 24 which is for the same expectant Mum as the quilt. I have just 3 motifs yet to add (  9 are done )

 This arrived yesterday and I haven't even had time to read it but know it is there when I want a creative fix.

 Last Friday at our P and Q  Group Milton & Julie  Wright came over from Morrinsville with their trailer load of fabrics . We had a good turn out of ladies plus some from Papamoa so I think it was worth while for them.
 I purchased 2 larger pieces for backing ,some fat quarters and 4 other fabrics I liked  - a metre each. Yummy fabrics - I love batiks.

 We have been having computer problems and this PC has had to have a new hard drive after a power pole was struck by a mad driver - yes we did have surge protection but that did not prevent the damage. Then when we get it back Xtra ( telecom ) has issues and things still aren't 100%. We even got a malicious phone  call ( which was the result of the server issues )- offering to fix our computer if we let them have access to it....yeah right. R used some carefully selected words to tell them about their pedigree. 
 Off now to take my cousin out to lunch for her Birthday.

  2. What luscious fabrics! Ah yes, computers......we had a fried modem some years ago while living in the Big Smoke, a storm hit just as our computer was being switched off.
