Today something happened were I've been looking forward to for quite some time. We had a quilting/stitching bee with some members of the Crazy Exchange Group. Marne was visiting the Netherlands for some weeks, and that was a perfect reason to meet the Dutch groupmembers Simone, Bianca, Jacqueline, Caroline, and me.
The come-together was at Simone's place, and, like it should be, it was spring! We spent all morning in the garden, and talked, laughed and admired each other's works. I for sure had a great time and it was lovely to see the other 'girls' . Marne brought us all a lovely pincushion with special pins (two-in-one), used for quilting (so now I am obliged to learn how to quilt, at least a little bit) and some nice fabrics.
Those who couldn't join us today, enjoy our pictures and be sure we talked about you LOL
The American princess-of-the-day ;)
Only tall gils can show such a beautiful quilt and yet be seen ;)
Do you see the magnificent hare?
The lovely package Marne gave us
From left to tight: Joke, Caroline, Bianca, Marne, Simone and Jacqueline. As you can see we had a wonderful time!

Leuk om de foto's terug te zien! Ik vond het ook zo geweldig vandaag. En het weer werkte ook nog helemaal mee! Ik vond het heel leuk je nu eens in het echt ontmoet te hebben.
