Oh yes...it's the joy of Summer....wandering around a Market stocked with delicious stalls of all things "made by hand". My group; Taree Craft Centre Inc., had their 'Summertime Market' last Saturday, so I was on hand to help with the days activities. Here we are at 8.30 in the morning in the gardens of our lovely 1904 cottage ....
There were pretty aprons made by Daphne and; modelled by our shop dummy who felt like a
day outside, so we didn't say no .....

The upcoming Melbourne Cup got a look in with a gorgeous hat by Elsie and a scarf and bag by other members......who needs more.....a little dress from the wardrobe and your favourite red shoes and your "in" for the "fashions on the field"......

No prop is left without being "dressed up" for the day. Here is a chair that wanted to come outside too.......doesn't it look smart with its handmade trimmings ??

Well...you've had pretty....so here is scary!!! Our talented rock painting President Pam, came up with a real Australian icon for our Australiana stall.......

then; there was this wonderful array of "everything country" by Trevor, Johan and Pam again with the gorgeous cow on her rock....

Sue kept both the customers and the rest of us fed with "muffin madness"....blueberry, apple, pecan nut and butterscotch....mmmmm......tasted delicious! Bethne kept the stocks of jam up...country food never looked so good.....

Have you been to a Market lately.....what was the absolute "to die for thing" that caught your eye?? I would love to hear.
Finally; I have been stitching....yes; Easter has been my subject. Now; I know your not at all interested in Easter when you haven't even enjoyed Christmas yet, but.....here's a sneak peak of what I worked on and sent in for publication.
Want to take a guess at what my cute bunny is looking at ??? You do! Okey let me hear it, and if you guess it, I'll send you a little gift.....mmmm......nothing grand, just some sweet thing. It's just past midnight here, so I'll give you until midnight tomorrow night.....that's Monday 2nd November at 12.00pm......start guessing and don't forget to leave an email address!!!

You want a hint??? Oh okey...gee I'm soft.........she's a girl bunny and she is looking upwards....there you go!
