Aussie fun!

Warning: Serious eye "PLAY" candy ahead...

Well, where do I start??
First off, going to AU to teach... Does it get any better?
Of course it does!  Shopping at Material Obsession, having Kathy as our tour guide, and I got to work with 40 Fabulous Aussie quilters! WE PLAYED!!!
 Everyone jumped right in, and fabric soon was flying in good 15 minute Fashion!

Sally posing picture perfect with her "PLAY!"

All the creativity in one place,  is like Heaven... Ideas were popping left and right, and I can't wait to see some of the finished projects!  Such great Starts!

 Terry is a frequent player on 15minutesplay.com, so nice to put a face to the name!

 Michelle was off and running on her giant triangles... so much fun!


You can tell we were all very low-key, right?



Lot's of chatting and fun!





Thanks Aussie Quilters!!!!   WAAY to much fun! 
I'm home and off to drop off to zzzzz-snooze-y-land...
I will do another post on the fabulous Material Obsession, and Miss Kathy....
pop over and see her posts so far...
