Brisbane

 Last Thursday, Paddy and I flew to Brisbane to go to the AQC. We were so excited to be heading to a craft show again after so long. We arrived at our apartment and Adrienne met us there. We walked to the shops and enjoyed afternoon tea and bought some sushi for dinner. On Friday we headed to the Exhibition Centre to meet Fiona. We had a lovely time! It was a bit smaller than in Melbourne and many of the shops from Victoria weren't there. Still, we loved seeing Anni Downs, Jane at Bebe bold and the Birdhouse stalls and many others.

The quilts were quite amazing. Here are a few of them.

This quilt has been made using quarter inch hexagons.

On Saturday, we explored a bit. We caught the river cat to Teneriffe. We were planning to have lunch there but there was a music festival and the main road was closed off. We then returned to South Bank and had a late lunch there.

We decided to walk back to town over the bridge. We bought some simple dinner and relaxed in the evening.

We enjoyed seeing these stainless steel statues.

Yesterday, Paddy and I filled in time till our late afternoon flight having lunch and then catching the air train to the airport. The weather was so beautiful there. Freezing here today! 

I didn't need anything but still managed to buy!
