Another market day gone at Cabarlah, So many people, so dusty and a great day was had by all.Saturday was Tina's (aka more-ish) high tea to raise funds for National Breast Cancer Research. I cant remember the last time there was so much food in one place, of such variety and beautiful quality, presentation, taste and all handmade by Tina. Congrats to an amazing fundraiser, raising $1812 is an awesome feat!

This was taken at a pit stop on the way back from Glen Innes today, I cant believe after all these years of travelling along the New England Highway I dont think I've ever seen this weather rock before! We went to Glen Innes for Jeffs brothers 50th on Sat night. We had a lovely time. We stayed in the most fantastic B&B called Tudor House, it's on the highway and was fantasticly comfortable and gorgeously old world, just our style....we want one!

Nearly ready for The Handmade Expo, heat packs were the almost last thing to do, see the purple and white chenille squares? Half way through customer ordered cushions. They're so snuggly too, I'll have to think about some for myself and maybe the grandbabes too!

Managed to find a couple of hours to finished my old fav. the bubbachenille version with a bow, there's so much room in this and has a pocket inside for your phone or a lippy! Now I'm right to start on the hats,bright pants and new heatpacks in those fantastic colours. They are all chopped up and ready to sew. I have a fairly empty week ahead at this stage (famous last words!) so I hope to achieve a lot as the following week is The Handmade Expo again on the 18th October. Starting to work on The Handmade Expo for Goondiwindi in April too, so there is never a dull moment!
