GDITC was held at the
Memorial Hall at
Nundle and this was the sign welcoming us all
This day is hosted by
Kerry from The Cottage on the Hill
Quilts and flowers by the front entry......so welcoming
A little box of requirements for the day along with a coffee mug which we got to keep (I swapped my pink one for an aqua one with
Cheryll)
see on the right hand side of the little box the white ric rac
I was on the White Ric Rac table
included was a little notebook which I managed to swap and get this one off
Dawnie
then realized that
Kerry's project was for a journal cover
I'll have to get myself a new little book as I can't bring myself to cover this one!!!
Kerry's project......A Journal Cover
and the real deal......
Guest Tutor for the day was
Sue Daley and the project was a butterfly made out of the charm pack we received. This version is on a box lid
Kerry had made hers to insert into the top of the little box we all received
And this one on a bag cover
And woo hooo here is my first hexagon
Around our table I spotted this little project above using 'clamshells'. This is last year's project also by Sue....Kerry has the guest tutors for 2 years in a row and next year's is
Lynette Anderson and I am already booked in!!!
This lovely little pencil case or any sort of case belongs to
Susan

Anni Downs......how gorgeous is this......I might have to add this to my looooong list of things to make
