As promised on an earlier post some photos of

This grand mansion is in the suburbs of Melbourne

on fourteen acres of manicured lawns and gardens.

Saturday was the Peninsula Quilters Patchworkers Quilt-In,

managed to get there after finishing a class in the morning.

 

 

Around 280 people turned up for a day of sewing, guest speakers

and a trading mall.

 

 

Maureen from Palm Beach Quilting.

 

 

Kate from Sew in Love with Fabric & Threads.

 

 

Estelle from Craft Quarters.

The whole of Victoria shivered through yesterday,

with a bitter blast in the afternoon and

with snow down to 400mts above sea level.

I managed to capture a few pics of the hailstones

in a carpark at Rosebud.

Yesterday we visited the beautiful Rippon Lea Estate,

for the exhibition of

Love, Desire & Riches.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The detail on some of the gowns was amazing and all by hand of course.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just a sample of the display.

Photos of this stunning estate to come.
