Hi everyone ....
Its been a great weekend with heaps of quilting.  This weekend was the annual Australasian Quilting Convention . We are very priviliged to have this event in Melbourne and its a great opportunity to soak up inspiration as well as stock up on some quilting supplies (with over 200 retailers!). Here are a couple of photos of the supplies I picked up.  I was excited to pick up the first fabrics from Threadbear . The purple collection is so yummy and I already have plans to use these in a pillow.  On the right is a pack from Ballarat Patchwork .  A favourite store of mine, for the bright and modern fabric collection and inspiration.  I try to pick up a pack each year and use throughout projects.  Last year was a collection of grey, aqua and yellows (a couple of which are used below).  Ballarat Patchwork is well worth a visit.
I also made good progress on my new quilt.  These are the blocks, cut ready for sewing.  By the end of today I have about half the blocks constructed.  A great Sunday!  Did I mention we had fantastic Autumn weather this weekend?  Crisp and bright.  
Hope your having a good weekend ....
