I had a fun visitor last week.... who took over my design board......
... do you recognise that gorgeous smile????/ yes it's Chookyblue....
We had a day of stitching and an evening of stitching - but I forgot to take more pictures! silly me....
I worked on my Japanese blocks... there are 6 completed ones now.... (3 more to go)
On Saturday morning I met up with my daughter and widget (Hubz had a work thing on this weekend) and we went to my most favourite place......
The beach.......
Here is widget on our first walk along the Esplanade at Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast....
Saturday night was Eat Street Markets (Miami Markets)
.... where we shared a mixture of Asian and Turkish.....
... and a splash of something nice.....
On Sunday I spent some time chatting to one of the locals....
... whilst doing some stitching.... that's DD and widget on the paddleboard in the background....
Evening walk at the end of the weekend......
I managed to finish one tag for the No Fuss Stitch-a-long.... isn't it the perfect one....
Righto, Gotto Go.... back home there is laundry to be done, quilt jobs to be done and maybe a bit of stitching to be done.....

What a fun social weekend and you still managed to get some stitching done.
What a great week you have had......can't believe Chookyblue came to visit, lucky you! Somehow I missed your last post too, I hadn't seen your Japanese blocks, a very interesting way to use those fabrics.
Lots of fun times....perfect tag.
You had the best weekend anyone can have. Friends, family, sewing, beach and something on ice! You lucky girl. You did exactly what the tag was asking for. You took it to the beach, lol. I also love your kind of locals for a chitchat. ;^)
Wow, it looks like your stitching time together was very productive.
And it looks like a great time was had with family as well.
that's the way it should be!
Lovely to get away for the weekend and even nicer to have a fun visitor. xx
Lucky Chooky to have been able to share your design board and sewing space...
A beautiful time away at the beach with Widget and your DD.
Yep perfect tag to stitch.
Your photos could have been taken right here in Key West! Don't you just love the warm weather and gorgeous water? And let's not forget the all important adult beverages :) Looks like you had fun with both family and friends this week!
Love chooky’s churn dash blocks, if they went up on my design wall I might not have let them get down!
Great work on your blocks and the thread in your stitchery is so pretty.. is it a cottage garden thread?
A lovely getaway with your daughter and master widget.
How fun to stitch with a friend!! Gorgeous beach pics, as I sit here shivering and knowing the snow is coming down....love the little stitchery!!!
What a great fun to have a stitchover :) and a great family time too
