- I celebrated my birthday with a cheats birthday cake - supermarket sponge and strawberries, still tasted good though.
- some lovely wool felt from my sister, that just happens to co-ordinate perfectly with some of my Liberty. (can you tell I am just dying to make something with this fabric)
- a day out at the Auckland Festival of Quilts with Rachel and Deb. Some amazing quilts, these were a few that caught my eye. We also met up with some other blog and flickr friends, from Wellington and Christchurch,
- a little stash enhancement from the festival
- some sewing for the SSM6 swap.
- I smile everytime I see this
Hoping you all had a fabulous weekend too.

ReplyDeleteQuarter inch hexagons, how can anyone do that? Glad you got to the show, a tad far from here. Food still looking good enough to move in, even if it is a supermarket sponge!
ReplyDeleteLove the Batman poster! Happy Birthday! Looks like the perfect cake to me! I loved that quarter hexie quilt too, I took quite a few photo', but didn't take note of owner and details which has me dissapointed.
