Sunday sewing

 Yesterday my friend Cathy and I headed off to Burnie for a lovely stitching friendship day. We had such a good time. I didn't take many photos as I was too busy talking.
 I did buy some lovely things including this fig tree pattern and some lovely buttons.
 I got a little bit of stitching done on my Natalie Bird project. I have stitched a few blocks now, they are fun and quick to do.
 It was my friend Tracee's birthday last week so I  made her this table runner, I hope you like it Tracee and you enjoyed your special day. This tumbler block is a great design.
Busy day ahead, I need to do some baking for the boys lunch boxes during the week and of course fit in a bit of sewing time. I hope you all have a great day.
