I started my time off with a road trip..............

..........and I will finish my time off work with........a road trip!  Not so far from home this time....just to Port Pirie.....for a weekend with Melly .....


and Rosalie......


- hosted by Robyn from Country Hart.  As usual Robyn and her helpers did an amazing job with presentation.....this was the goodie bag we received on arrival......


Two projects on offer today......do I choose to do Rosie's applique project.........


Or......Melly's stitchery project.... Baby Bunting.....a cute sampler......

Not the best photo in the world....but you can see I chose the stitchery sampler...especially since Melly could help me with a couple of stitches I have struggled with...the colonial know and satin stitch (which I tend to avoid like the plague)..this is what I achieved today (possibly because Kris wasn't there to distract me???)  Also in the pic are some of the contents of the goodie bag....I am surprised the little gold Lindt bunny survived the day.  I know a couple that didn't!  Not mentioning any names Amanda and Sue (no blog).......!!

Dinner with some of the girls tonight.....then back again tomorrow for round two!  The little sampler will come in handy...there has been a bit of a baby boom at work!  It's for a boy....just need to add name and details .......or there is a "girl" version as well......might stitch some up and have on hand!

Hope Rhi and the girls are having a good time "Rose-sitting" for me (oh and looking after the house as well)....it was a great opportunity for them to have a weekend in the Barossa and do me a favour at the same time. 

Gratitudes:
weekends away
friends new, old and absent
my job - I need to go back now!
