Well, today is the day to announce my Grow Your Blog Party Winners which was organised by the wonderful Vicki - you can click on the pic below to get to the Party.
I elected to have two winners - one from Australia and one from Overseas.
So, drum roll please..... The Overseas Winner is
Congratulations, Kim, please email me with your snail mail address and these goodies will be winging your way soon.
Second drum roll..... The Aussie winnner is......
Now wait! We actually have a third drum roll! As Cath from Bits'n'Bobs was the first person to guess that I am the middle sister (most people chose my baby sister!) she will also win a small prize - some more fabbie from my stash and maybe a couple more surprise items.
Cath, I am not sure I have your snail mail address so please email me with it.
Now, here is my Happy Dance - This is my Day 6 Crazy January Challenge - my first finish for that Challenge and my second Happy Dance for the year - Merry Cat'smas! This is a freebie design from Terri Carl but I am not exactly sure where I got it from. This was a train stitching piece - so I stitched a bit on it each morning on the way to work. This was finished between Jolimont and Flinders Street Stations yesterday morning.
Now, to tell you some more of my adventures. Last Sunday, I went to the city with DS1's gorgeous girlfriend who comes from Taiwan. She had been intrigued by my stories of the 19th century shopping arcades of Melbourne and my tales of marvellous lunches at the Hopetoun Tea Rooms in the Block Arcade and of Gog and Magog in the Royal Arcade.
So here are some of the marvels we saw - we had such a great day together, it was just lovely.

Sorry, the photos are all a bit jumbled but that was a bit like our day as we wandered at will through the arcades and laneways of Melbourne.
Well, off to do a little bit of stitching,
hugs,
