Giveaway win and what I’ve been working on…..

DSCF7741

Kim had a giveaway on her blog to celebrate a very special “O” birthday and I was the very lucky girl who won it and look what arrived in my mailbox…… a gorgeous table runner using a mini charm pack, LOve it!! and Kim also included a couple of extras, a pretty charm pack called Soho Chic and a dainty little notebook she picked up in Darwin while holidaying for her birthday, thank you Kim you certainly brightened my week up a lot.

Why don’t you pop over to Kim's blog and check out all the lovely quilts and stitching she’s working on Kim does such lovely work and you wont be disappointed and while you’re there why not wish her a happy birthday for last week Smile

I’ve also been doing a bit of baking today as I wanted to try out the Donna Hay apple and blueberry cake from the book I got for my birthday from Shez……MMmmmmm it looks and tastes delicious just ask my hubby! I’ve also made some pumpkin soup which seems to be popular as Chooky has also been making this. I’ve also been baking a couple of things for my sister Anne, her favourite biscuits “coconut crunch” as well as a date and nut roll so I think I’ll be popping by her place sometime tomorrow with a basket of goodies for her Smile

In-between all this baking I’ve been putting a few stitches into this stitchery and have plans to continue working on it tonight while vegging out in front of the  TV, I’ll try and pop around a few blogs tomorrow and see what everyone's been up to while celebrating with Chooky this weekend.
