Lovely Thimble Container and beautiful stitching

Donna from Wednesday stitching keeps her antique thimble in the loveliest container. Here it is and the picture below is it open showing the thimble. We put it on my favourite needle case made from a design by Lynette Anderson.

This lovely Christmas stitchery is Audrey's. We are all in awe of her beautiful satin stitches!

Wednesday stitching girls

Here are some more lovely works in progress by the Wednesday stitching ladies. This is Penny's lovely quilt for a little friend of hers. He will love counting those sheep.

This is Helen's bag. She has made both the front and the back. It is looking great.

This is the back of Maxine's lovely bag.

Nada came to our class last week to work on the starry quilt but also shared this lovely quilt she is working on with us. 

Weekend in Sydney

Had a lovely weekend in Sydney with Fiona and Ros and many other women. We had a great time at the Colour Conference and also enjoyed a little shopping and some wonderful meals. Here are a few pictures of Darling Harbour.

This one is the view from our apartment.

More beautiful stitching by the Wednesday girls

This is some lovely redwork stitched by Gail.

Angela loves Japanese patchwork and fabrics and is working on some sashiko. I hope I have spelt it correctly.

Isn't this runner beautiful? Colleen has been working on this for a while and it has turned out so well.

Isn't the stitching lovely?

Wednesday morning stitching

Yesterday the girls at social stitching were working on some lovely things. It is a good chance to see what everyone is making and can be very motivating. Marilyn recently discovered the Noah's Ark BOM by Lynette Anderson and here are the giraffes and Noah and the cows.

Katrina is doing a great job of this lovely native wildflowers embroidery designed by Fiona at Peaceful Threads. There are so many flowers in the borders!

Gail is working on one of Anni Downes stitcheries. It is from the Simple Pleasures book.

The Bouquets

Since I am blogging flowers, this is a closeup of one of the bouquets. Gorgeous colour.

Beautiful Flowers

Here is a picture of one of the lovely floral arrangements that Marlene, from church, arranged for Amy and Gavin's wedding. They were really lovely arrangements. I think people who can arrange flowers like this are so clever. I can embroider them but not arrange them!
