A finish to share with you. It's one of Gail Pan's designs called Little Blue House. The thread I used was Cottage Garden Thread "Mill Rose" so it's a Little Peach House!
We had a wonderful day with the Mill Rosie Friends yesterday. I'll share some more of that tomorrow.
Austin headed off this morning for the second day of a driving course. His mate Will's dad was doing the drop off.
We laughed when Tom and Will turned up in their army vehicle. This is how Will gets to practice his manual driving.
Why am I having a giveaway?
MacDonald's Patch is 5 years old today!
On the 16th November, 2009 this is what I wrote:
Welcome to our Patch!
Hi
Everyone. I've decided to join the blogging world. It may take me a
while to get the hang of all this blogging business but hopefully I will
conquer it!
Wasn't very exciting, was it!
I think I improved a great deal as I went along.
This is my 608th post (never thought I could write so much!), I have 194 followers (maybe I'll get to 200)
and had 134,513 page views.
Anyway, I guess you'd like to know what the prize is.
Yes, I am giving away my Little Peach House.
You don't have to be a follower to enter, although I'd love to get to 200 and anyone can enter.
Just make sure you aren't a no-reply blogger.
My giveaway finishes next Sunday, 23rd November, at 8.42pm AEST. That's the time I published my first post.
Good luck everyone!
