mill rosie friends - may 2014.....

Another wonderful Mill Rosie Friends day has come and gone...

 

It is always a fantastic day at Mill Rose Cottage, Ballan...

 

As always, there were beautiful and amazing swap gifts from this incredibly talented and very lovely group of ladies...

        

 

some of the ladies - which us 'Gisborne Girls' (aka the Country Girls) - Sue, Tracee, Marg and myself - call the 'City Girls', could not make it this time around, as they were on retreat.  Tracee however made sure that they still made their presence known.  They did pop up in some unexpected places -

 

checking out some fabric...

 

and some Christmas sewing...

 

they joined us for lunch at the wonderful restaurant next door...

 

and for some reason popped up in the shrubbery afterwards - perhaps they were admiring the garden...

 

lots of laughter and hilarity as usual... Tracee looks like she is about to cry, but I am sure she was just wiping away tears from laughing so much!

 

 

as always, the paparazzi were in full force...

 

 

there was show and tell - this is Marg's beautiful Quilt Aid quilt, for which she recently deservedly won a first prize for at the local CWA craft show...

and of  course the day would not be complete without a few little purchases...

 

It was another wonderful day with wonderful people - lots more wonderful photos can be found here, here, here and here...
