Thanks EVERYONE who left a comment to try and win my latest fabric range 'Love to Garden'. I must say I was SO overwhelmed by your entries. I read them all and was blown away by many of the comments liking my REALLY old designs - projects I thought were long lost in anyones thoughts.
Anyway, thanks to technology, the number scrambler chose a number whose comment was from..... drum roll please.... Shirley Pearce!!
Now, I think that number scrambler must have know I liked that entry, as she wrote -
"Gardening is my favorite hobby! It is one thing I have found that when you finish it, it still looks great the next day - something the kiddos don't mess up in 15 minutes!" Shirley wrote more, but I just LOVE this comment and it made me realise that that is probably why I love gardening so much too - just hadn't realised why before now!!
I will have to do more giveaways in future with more prizes as I hate the thought that only one person wins - oh to be able to give a prize to everyone...
Alas, moving on.... here is the progress of the new quilt I am working on... as you can see, it doesn't really look like progress at the moment ;). Rather, it is looking like messy mess all over my room... sigh... hopefully it will look like a quilt soon!
...and still I play on. Even though it is looking far from anything concrete, I am having loads of fun and, like always, keep changing my mind!!! I wish I was a more decisive person, as this swaying on the fence is a little dizzying ;)
Thanks again to all you crazy stitchers
Until next time
Anni
What a gorgeous fabric collection! Quilt in progress looks delicious, Anni :-))

Congratulations to the very lucky winner. That upcomming quilt is looking good so far. Did you used to be indecisive but now you're not so sure? LOL

Shirley's very lucky to win your give-away. Can't wait to see your new quilt when it's finished I'm sure it will be just as beautiful as all of your other designs!

Congrats to Shirley. I was in Bathurst over the weekend. I missed the shop on Saturday arrived at 3pm. I took some photos. I was lucky enough to visit Abercombe house. Maybe next time I will come during the week.
