I was sure I had posted these photos back in mid January when I took off on my holiday, but perhaps I didn't. I got in and prepped January's stitchery. And I was lucky enough to have my pattern arrive before I left as well.
With my main fabrics taken from my drawer of saving for a special project. I've decided on 2 Riley Blake designs and I'm still not sure about the little moda roll.
Once in Melbourne the stitching and the shopping for backgrounds began, after about 7 different shops. Yes Chooky I shopped well for all these luscious backgrounds.
I then finished my January stitching. I'm thinking it will be a runner, but saving that completion for another day. I squeezed in a couple of runners as well, teaching a friend how to quilt and bind.
Just a days shopping...this was Milrose cottage in. Ballan Victoria. What an amazing place
And then there was today's, rest and recovery, I've come home from my holiday 2 days ago and spent the best part of it resting from flu like symptoms, today, I've watched 2 movies and managed to apliquick all my January prices ready for a sewing night next week. Feeling accomplished.

WOw - you have made a lot of progress.
You're looking good. I did the date but so far the basket and flower have been disasters.

wow I am exhausted just reading this, no wonder you came back feeling unwell, rest up and do lots of stitching
Hi Sonia, your stitching and colours look amazing! Great work.
Thanks girls, off to sewing tonight, hope to get a few of the pieces stitched on. I'm learning to love the apliquick method. As I'm working on my Lynette anderson quilt at the same time. (Kate, I'm trying to get at least the top done on our deal)
i'm sure you suffered well going to all those patchwork shops....looking good...
You're putting me to shame...the fabrics are just gorgeous x
