but here is one of her surprises - which she is modelling herself, in the style of 'Wilson'!!
A gorgeous little quilt! And next - the beautiful knitted blanket!
Don't you just love them! i did three squares - but the non fancy ones - several lovely blogging ladies - Julie, Val,Lucy and Michaela made gorgeous squares (if i've missed anyone out i humbly apologise but my memory is crap and when Mrs Moog was telling Trash all the details i missed bits!) and the fantastic Mrs Moog put the quilt together, knitted squares and put the blanket altogether - i don't think she slept for the last three days!!! What a woman!!!As you can imagine Trash was over the moon - i did get a quick cuddle with the blanket and was tempted to sneak it home!! But it has inspired me to be a bit more adventurous in my knitting and have a go and try and do things like this
So all in all it was a lovely party!I was also very lucky this week to get a parcel from Jenny. I had commented on the lovely fabric she had used to make some jammies and she very kindly offered to send me some - but not only that she sent me some gorgeous goodies as well !
I feel very spoilt - thank you soo very much Jenny!
Well thats it for the moment - except for a little p.s. to this post - which Lesley will love!! When i got home late last night, i stepped out of the heels and into wellies as i had to hay up the horses for the night - Em and I went out to the paddocks with torch and hay only to find that two of the horses had managed to pull out all the electric fencing! So there i was in my gladrags, ankle deep in mud trying to put it altogether by torchlight!! ah my life is such fun!!! Never a dull moment!

Oh poor Maria ... I have mental pictures of you dressed up to the nines with the wellies on, in the freezing cold ......... Glad you had a lovely night though, looks like loads of fun :o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)
Rotten bloody hosses!
Thank you for coming to play last night. You and Lesley flew the blogland flag well (if a little secretly ;-)
Aww, what an end to your evening! Glad you like your goodies. Hugs xx
Sounds like a great party... but what a way to end your evening!

I celebrated my brithday Friday sadly I didnt get any crafting gifts, but those posted here look fab, and well received :)
They were Tallis, very well received.
Ahhhh the life of a farm-girl, nothing but glamor!
So, so very sad to have missed the party - and for my package to have missed the party as well :( Ever so grateful for the pics - thanks a million!

ps: As of Saturday afternoon, 28" in the yard; an additional 12" slated to come tomorrow night. It surely IS Snowmageddon!!!!
Love the quilt and knitted blanket - Moogsmum did a truly splendiferous job there! I wonder if a trend has now been started...
At least you can laugh about it ! That flower knitted into the quilt is beautiful .
So glad Mrs T's party went well - was thinking of you all on Saturday evening.
Sorry to hear about the horses. :(

great party by the sounds of it! I also have spent many atime fighting with fencing tape and zappers!!
Love that Scottie patch - it reminds me of my dear departed furry friend.

Hi, I'm just popping round to the other members of the 20 minuters to give them the opportunity to join in the Gift draw in our blog shop. It is partly down to the encouragement of MarmaladeRose that I am still really enjoying doing my 20 minutes of crafting every day and this is stocking the shelves in our shop. I hope you will pop over and join in the fun. The draw will be made on Mon 22nd Feb so this is the last week. If you choose to join in Good Luck. :-)

Many thanks,

looks like such a fun evening - glad everyone had a good time - especially Mrs Trash herself. Didn't the blanket work out beautifully - clever Lesley for getting it all together! Sounds like you could have had a better homecoming though, no sugar lumps for those two!
Reading the last part of your post I had a bit of a Barbara moment from the Good Life! xx
