Magpies.....

Magpies chatter and chatter...... and so did we.....


... we met up at Spring Bluff cafe for the most delicious Devonshire Tea - I do love it when the scones are crunchy on top ...... 


Shez and Chez were up for a Brisbane stitching weekend and Michelle brought them up the hill for a visit on their free day....

Up the hill we visited my favourite LQS "The Quilters Angel", where a little shopping might have happened ...... 


... and went over to my house for chatter and a light lunch .....  Hubz is still talking about the noise!!! haha



We have been special friends for a long time so this was a wonderful treat 

.... of course there has to be a silly pic.....


Michelle brought a birthday gift for me..... bee themed and just so pretty...  That cross stitch on the front of the sewing case is teeny weeny and must have taken days to do..... so precious...  One of her beautiful hand made cards, some lip balm, CG thread and just gorgeous fabrics - I will need to think carefully what I will make with those....  Thank you Michelle - I love it all


Even though we have a no pressie rule Shez arrived with some of her beautiful home made Beetroot which I can't wait to try... and a roll of happy spotty dotty fabrics.... I do love spots.... Thank you so much Shez ..... love it.  I need to think of something spotty to make too


 Easter Bunny must have dropped these Easter themed goodies in Michelle's car - we all got a sweet plate and roll of easter ribbon...... how sweet is that plate?


Of course the biggest gift was seeing all three of these special friends - we live too far away to get together very often so there was lots to catch up in a short time..... thanks so much for making the trip up the hill... 

Righto, Gotto Go... Monday morning and there is a couple of quilting jobs waiting to be done!
