it's oh so quiet....

it's oh so still.... whoops! now I've got Bjork singing in my head!

Anyway, as I was saying, it's been awfully quiet around here, things have been a little bit busy, but I have had two great "quilty" experiences in the last couple of weeks.  I see there are even a few new followers since the last time I posted - so hi to you all and welcome!

Firstly, I had a new friend over for some sewing time last week. I met Kyishia at a recently quilting group and finally had a chance to catch up again last week.  As luck would have it, Sir Pinkying was out for the evening so we took over the lounge room at my place for lots of talking and laughing and a "little" bit of quilting.  We had so much fun that we're going to do again next week.  This time I'm determined to have more than 6 pieces cut out at the end of the night!!

I did a little work on something from this book

 Using these gorgeous Heather Ross fabrics..

We went away over the weekend, which was nice.  It was just good to get out of the general rat race and have some time out.  As an added bonus, my Mum invited some friends over who are both quilters, so we had a lovely afternoon talking about all things fabric and quilting.

I've also been working away on a couple of secret projects, but I can't share them with you yet, but hopefully I'll be back with more news soon!
