A few days away....

Happy Easter


We have had a few days away.
Queenscliff caravan park
It was great - lots of things for the kids to do.
Next over to Ballarat - to visit the family (his..not mine)
I was given a few hours off on Saturday to tour the area.
First stop
Creswick.

Found a new shop

The Elephant Patch
Embroidery classes, 'old' stuff and designer 'elephant patch' clothes.

Then onto
I popped into
Threadneedle Craft
Merrilyn was lovely - some great fabric & books in her shop

I suppose it was a long long weekend - but I was surprised at how busy the town was!
I then went over to the Hunters Mistress's
I saw some great stuff - especially liked these beautiful butterfly chrysalis.
My next spot was a bit off the track - in the back blocks of the town...
on East Street - in door 4

They had old featherstone chairs (above) and old post boxes from France (below)

It was in a huge old factory. So plenty of room for sandcastles?
I then popped into this lovely shopand got some wool there for my next project.

No didn't see a price - lot of things with no price.
It was next to a business called 'overwrought' - they have a webpage with map - they are shed 2 - this place was shed 4. It's worth the look!
