Today I got a little parcel from my wonderful friend Vicky! Even though Vicky has just had surgery herself and is not feeling the brightest she managed a brief visit to the Harrogate Quilt show on Sunday.
Here she is with her snake quilt which she has made for James (her Step-grandson, I believe)
Isn't that a great quilt!!! And a cute bag! :-)
Vicky very kindly sent me a CD with some photos of my quilts and other inspiration. As well as buying me some rose fabrics (I'm getting a reputation here!!)
And how is this for a special surprise. When Vicky was buying my fabrics she mentioned to the lady at Cotton Dreams that I was unable to attend and see my quilts due to circumstances and the lady threw in an extra FQ for me! I am delighted and touched at the kindness of others! Thank you Vicky and thank you Cotton Dreams!
Here are my quilts (again for some!)
My Scrapbuster (also seen in my header on this blog)
And Toby's baby quilt. (Which he has never used - perhaps this winter. He'll be 2, but he's still my 'little' baby! LOL)
This photo I nabbed from Andrea's blog who was also at the show on Sunday and who also got me some beautiful roses! Thank you again Andrea.
Well, it wasn't quite like being there, but it's not bad at all considering. Thank you my friends! And get well soon please Dear Vicky!!!

Wasn't that thoughtful of Vicki...so very nice of her. I love the quilts. The hearts are so creative; I've been thinking of doing a quilt with hearts but on a smaller scale like a doll quilt. Hugs, Susan
These are good friends to you! How nice of them to think of you and want to share the show with you (and the vendors).
That is a good friend. And a nice shop owner too! It has been nice reading through your posts :)
Wow! You are getting quite a rose collection.
You're very welcome. I saw Vicky's quilt and it was really great. The people on the Cotton Dreams stand were lovely. I bought thread from them and had a nice long chat about this and that. Your Rose quilt is fabulous so far. I loved your paper-pieced rose when you first showed it.
You are so loved Karol-Ann! What wonderful friends you have! Your quilts are just gorgeous!
Your quilts look so fabulous!! How sweet of Vicki to make pictures and send you the lovely goodies!
You’ve inspired me to try hexagons, so I bought the paper pieces needed!
What a kind shop-keeper - people like that deserve repeat business
You deserve this, you are such a great friend yourself.
Friends are so fabulous! Thinking about you and love your quilts; have a grand time with your new fabrics.
I hope you are feeling better real soon Karol-Ann. Aren't good friends just the best?
What a caring friend...and your quilts are just spectacular.
