Girls day in the Country 2016

It seems only yesterday since I was last at Nundle for GDITC Today I joined all my lovely friends from blog land for a day of laughter, stitching, tea and lovely food This years Guest tutorer was Anni Downs, from Hatched and Patched  We were greated with hot pink bags full of scrumptious  goodness And bowls of Jelly Beans and table centres made with Anni s most recent fabric range, which were later raffled to raise money for Kerry's favourite charity. Today's main project was a gorgeous project roll,  And a scrumptious needle / accessory book I can't wait to get into these projects , but with just 13 days until we fly away  I think this maybe a winter project. I had a wonderful day and had a lot of fun shopping in Nundle  Until next time CIAO Googy Girl
