Here she is again - Saskia! She's growing more beautiful every day and just loves her family - she cries when the little ones are at school!
A pic of my sweet Alice - and sweet she is! She has such a lovely nature. I'm so smitten with Saskia I feel like a traitor of a Mum to my two little pups at times!
Oh, yes - a little bit of shopping at the show! These gorgeous linens to make a shaggy quilt, a few gorgeous novelty prints at the back and a new pattern. I must think about a start on Mrs. Perkins over the weekend, Janet and Joy ! - anyone else care to join in - see my Sidebar!
♥
While thinking about Blogland Girlfriends - you must pop over to see Robyn of Daisy Quilts - she has a gorgeous quilt published in the latest edition of Down Under Quilts - congratulations, Robyn! I believe there is a project of mine in that issue, too - must try to pick up a copy today!
This is a better pic of the Block of the Month project I have joined - Green Tea and Sweet Beans - certainly is colourful and interesting. It will be a challenge for me to keep up - we'll see how I go!
From the quilt show - Monet's Garden by well-known WA quilter, Jan Rowe! Wow, all those little hexagons - beautifully executed!
Created by our well-known Australian quilter, Jenny Bowker - will this creation be at Houston this year?
♥
Off to the doctor with Mum for scripts today, then maybe to Garden City to have a look about for some new shoes/boots - it is starting to get chilly here now! Some new clothes are in order to suit the extra kilos - not good in recession times, pity the body hasn't recessed, too!
♥
Happy weekend!
PS - for all you Happy House builders - Julia and I will start the trimming and sorting this weekend!

I'm was in awe of these gorgeous quilts..
I will be very surprised if Jenny's quilt doesn't make it to Houston..
It's good for the recession Lurline..maybe not for your pocket, but you are spending!!...smile
Hugs Julia ♥
I love the pics of Saskia and Alice - they are so beautiful. Thanks too for sharing quilts from the show. What a feast for the eyes! Have fun shopping. Hope you have a wonderful weekend Lurline!
I love Saskia. There were Ragdoll kittens for sale in our local paper last week. I'm so tempted but I might be better to wait until Ellie is just a little older.
Thank you so much for sharing some of the Show Quilt's Lurline... Just Amazing & the Linen fabrics look way too interesting for the health of my pocket but as Julia says ... Good for the recession... Gotta do our Bit! Smiles :)
Love that new pattern - the elephant is so so cute!!
Lurline when I saw this post I laughed and laughed! When I went to Amitie with my friend Kerry a few months ago we saw the BOM pinned up out the back, in the process so to speak. We both fell in love with it and vowed to join when it came out! We just seem to love the same things.
Awww, Saskia is just gorgeous ... those eyes, wow!!! Of course, dear Alice is beautiful too :o).
Gorgeous fabrics Lurline. I've picked mine out for Mrs Perkins, I'll start her on the weekend too all being well - I had intended to start her earlier but bin a bit busy ;o). Congrats on your bag in DUQ - I'm off to buy my copy now :o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)
Saskia sure is a pretty cat. And the quilt underneath Alice looks pretty too. And the fabrics you bought look very interesting.
Your four legged family members are gorgeous, Saskia has such a cute face. Gorgeous quilts and loot from the show. Can't wait to see your animals. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, what a great read Lurline!
Your little kitty is perfectly adorable!!!
