This may be the quickest Blog Post ever,
photo’s are primed and ready to go,
I am sitting with Laptop on lap at Auckland airport waiting for my domestic flight to Palmerston North,
or Palmy as Palmerstonians like to call it.
One of the reasons why I’ve felt in a real muddle since getting back from the US is that there were many boxes of goodies arriving intermitently over the last week, cluttering up the place. I’m not great when things aren’t orderly. I’m pretty sure it’s a Libran thing.
Irene came up last weekend and we made an attempt to go through some of it. We couldn’t even remember 1/3 of what we bought.
Then yesterday my final box arrived, it was from Stella Rubin Antiques and contained this very charming treasure.
It was the cheerful yellow applique which charmed me so much, what an unexpected and delightful addition to a simple quilt pattern.
I also bought from Stella a few ‘orphaned’ blocks which appealed.
Love a good paisley as you know
When I was at the New England Quilt Museum, I found a couple of treasures there too
I’ll be whipping off that border of course
I’m going to leave it there for today, I’ve got time for a cup of tea if I don’t dilly dally.
Internet connection permitting I will be back in a day or two and will have a give-away as there is so much fabric!!
til soon,
Oh by the way,
all fine in NZ just took the opportunity to ‘nip’ home to see Mum before the rest of the year gets really busy.
