Weekend at the Chook Shed

I spent last weekend hanging out in The Chook Shed

 with Chooky, Googy and Miss Jules....

We had a lovely time celebrating the Chook Sheds

3rd Birthday and were so happy that lots of you

were also joining in on the Cyber Party.....

This was dinner on Friday night when I arrived after a wet

 slippery drive on the last leg of the journey which was dirt

road and there had been lots of rain which is great

for the area but not for my trip....

There's nothing quite like chilling with your friends

in your pyjamas stitching the weekend away....

Staying up late and sleeping in until The Whip cracker

 jumps on your bed and makes you get up!!

We were all ready for a great day of stitching....
Trish was all cosied up under the charity quilt that we have

 all been working on....Earning her keep here....

The finished product that will be donated to one of the

2015 Dungog Flood victims....

I'm so happy I got to be a part of it....

I machine sewed some binding onto 2 quilts,

 you can read about those in my last post....

I then worked on my Vintage Modern Dresden

 Quilt, here is my progress in pictures....

That's as far as I have gotten so far with my blocks and little

Dresden plates, not without problems, all that mood lighting....

And most definitely because a fair bit of this.....

There was reverse sewing involved when a few blocks were

sewn together with the fabric around the wrong way....Lol

I am happy to say that Miss Jule's other half is a great unpicker

 if you constantly feed him dip and bickies....

Trish busy working on her and Chooky's bonding quilt....

Oh the concentration!!!!

Miss Jules was busy quilting table runners....

Lots of bubbles, friendly banter, chatter, food and laughter...
Sadly the time came as it does far too quickly
 for me to pack up the car and head home....
Mr Chooky kindly drove me across the dirt section because
 the rain had not eased up all weekend, I had to take this along
 to calm the nerves whilst we were drifting in the mud....

I have hit the ground running this week  but I
have lots of fun memories and a very dirty car
 to remind me of our great weekend....

Bring on the 4th Birthday Celebrations!


Until next time, Happy Stitching
