Happy New Year 2012

Well it’s out with the old and in with the new. Wow….2011 went so fast and I hope 2012 slows down a bit.

I couldn’t resist that frog and mushrooms and snail..some of my favourite things.

I have had a fabulous 2011 with a couple of trips and one being to Queensland in March where I met up with Dawn, Joy, Fee and a few lovely bloggers.

That was a really fabulous trip and then the opening of my online shop The Pickledish Patch 

In June Mr T and I got our baby…our little Bella who brings us lots of joy and delight with her intelligence and little tricks.

Then in October I met my new grandson Jasper who is just gorgeous! Love him to bits!! and of course was able to give lots of hugs and cuddles to my kids and two other gorgeous grandsons.

I broke a bone in my foot…all healed up now thank goodness!

Also I was able to get my Craft Forum up and running which is a great place to escape to as its like a group of ladies meeting up every day to chat about what ever takes our fancy. Thanks heaps everyone for being there for me and sharing my days. Love you all!!

Another exciting event was starting up the blog Janiac’s Unite which is going along great with lots showing their Dear Jane blocks.

Of course I got a fair bit of sewing done and have increased my stash. Tee hee.

Happy New Year

to you all and I hope that 2012 is the best for everyone and we all have a creative stitching time. Stay healthy everyone and stay safe.

Hugs to all……

 

And We are OFFFFFFF!!!!!!!!

The day has finally arrived and we are off to Brisbane *big grin*

as I told my gorgeous Gum nut sistas I just have to wait a couple of hours

and then it will be time to get on the plane and fly to Brissie.

We have been wanting to do this get together since we first started the Among the Gum Trees group and now its finally here!!! Sooooo excited and can hardly believe its happening.

We are finally going to be meeting up and finally going to be able to give each

other a big hug...well lots of hugs I think.

I am so looking forward to Saturday too....can't wait to meet up with lots of gorgeous friends from Blogland and also Forumland too. Sooooo excited to be meeting you all as some of you its been a few years since we started chatting.

I have been told to look out for a princess when I get off the plane...

Oh I wonder who that will be hehehehehe

Time has come and I must sort a few things out and then my darling hubby will take me to the airport to catch the plane so I can spend a weekend with my gorgeous Nutty sistas *super big grin*

I can't wait to see all you lovely ladies coming along to the Saturday morning tea and I will take as many photos as I can and will show you all after I get back on Sunday.

sooooooo excited!!!!!

Hugs to all.........
