Today we welcomed Nicki and her friend Beth who had flown up here from the South Island. They were passing by on their way to New Plymouth to the Taranaki Garden Festival. I’m so pleased that Nicki and her friend popped in to say hello. Nicki (a former quilt blog writer) lives in Ashburton and we met up back in January 2018 when we were doing a caravan trip around the South Island. We had a good old catch up, reminiscing about our South Island trip. And hope to get back there again soon.
Beth and Nicki
With visitors expected I whisked up a batch of lemon muffins for morning tea. There’s nothing nicer than home baking, is there?

How about some show and tell? I showed Nicki some of my recent finishes, two donation quilts and the embroidered Under the Sea quilt I’m keeping for future family babies.

Nicki and Beth then went on their way again, and asked about local quilt shops. I advised them to stop at my favourite LQS Foxs Cottage, about 20km up SH1. It was lovely to see them both, and I’m sure they will have a marvelous time at the Garden Festival.

How nice to have friends to visit! No doubt they appreciated your lovely finishes, and those delectable-looking muffins. Actually, one of those sounds quite delicious right now. Keep enjoying life, as it looks like you are!
