“Seasons Of”…..Free BOM blocks 2 & 3

Well, I’m a little bit late but here they are, block 2 – Valentine’s Day 004 (Medium) and block 3 – St Patrick’s Day clip_image002 Links to both these blocks, and January’s if you’ve missed it, are in the sidebar.  Just click on the link and download. These are part of the year-long free BOM, Dawn and I are offering to you to celebrate the Seasons of Australia! Some significant things happen ‘Downunder’ so we thought we’d put them in a quilt!    In December, we’ll give you the finishing instructions.  Each block will be available till the end of the year, after which time they will be removed, so start collecting.  Dawn and I would love to see what you make with them, whether it be the final quilt, or whether you use each block individually, we’d love to know! Red heart If you read my last post, you’ll know I’ve been away at the Let’s Get Stitched retreat in Adelaide over the weekend.  Needless to say, I’m still coming back down to earth, but I’ll fill you in on that on Thursday, with photo evidence!!!  We’re off again tomorrow to Brisbane for a follow-up appointment with the eye specialist for DS…..but will be back tomorrow night…..dashing in and out, but I’ll have time to catch up with Marilyn and Susan for a bite to eat and they’ve generously offered to pick us up and drop us off at the airport…..aren’t they gorgeous gals?!  Marilyn was there with me at LGS in Adelaide…..we still can’t wipe the smiles off!!!!! Open-mouthed smile Until Thursday….I must get some shut-eye! Sugary hugs xox :O) Signature

Double whammy–FNWF & Birthday-Love Stash!

It’s always a good feeling when you can multi-task and get more than one thing done at once, and that’s how I spent my Friday night…. glass of wine, good tv shows and stitching some goodies that will fit both criteria….. 001 (Medium) Still a little more to be done to these girls but neeeearly there! I’m feeling good seeing as I can get some more things in my stash….how about you?  Don’t forget, if you want to join in with the Birthday-Love Stash this month, and be prepared for any upcoming birthdays or special events (that you generally forget until they’re right upon you, like I do!!!) then add your name to the Mr Linky tool that you’ll find on THIS POST.  There’ll be something wonderful as a prize for one of our Birthday-Love Stashers at the end of the month, so don’t miss out, and have the added bonus of being more organised too! I’m off to visit some of the other FNWF pals to see what they’ve been up to….come with me for a look-see!? Sugary hugs xox  :O) Signature

Birthday-Love Stash Winner And FNWF


February snuck up and almost snuck past me, catching me unawares, so I'm sorry for my late post of the winner of the Birthday-Love Stash for last month!


 


Mr RNG did his thing and drew a lucky number for some......well, at least this one person anyway.....


 




 


Congratulations Sisbabe!!!


 


I just happen to know her address as, believe it or not, we're in a birthday club together....how funny is that????   Not rigged at all, promise....... but Sisbabe, you've won this...




 


four panels of bakery treats....making me drool just looking at it!  I think you'll be able to find a use for some of these in your future Birthday-Love Stash presents???


If you head on over to Sisbabe's blog, you'll see the yummy treats she made for a very lucky birthday person this month!


And make sure you go and visit the girls who've linked HERE to see what they made for their birthday-love stashes too!


 


Now, so you can get organised early for the March Birthday-Love Stash .....you don’t even have to have taken part before…. just add your name to Mr Linky below….. and then come back and leave a comment to tell me you'll be joining us this month! 


And then get stitching right away!  If you're like me, you can make things in your
Friday Night With Friends, which is what I'm doing tonight....(when I'm not blogging, that is!!! hee hee )
