Christmas In July 2012

Yes - it is that time of the year again - time to spend time with my patchwork friends from all over the world!
This is my third Christmas In July Online Retreat - run by Sarah of Quilt Fabric Delight 

Here is some information about it HERE

Even though I have not made lots of projects from Christmas In July, I have made some wonderful friends (and they have all signed up for Christmas In July 2012)

From Australia - Mhairi -  I recently met her "in real life" when her family were on holidays in my state. Our friendship began last year when I was warmly welcomed by her in the chat room (my very first chat room experience) and we haven't stopped talking since!!!!
From France - Florence -who I met at the first Christmas In July (and chat regularly to), and who I will hopefully meet "in real life" one day.
From USA - Deanna - we met through The Great Global Christmas Swap a few years ago and both signed up for Christmas In July and every year since!
From my suburb - Barb - who I had a cuppa with last week, who is in my Fat Quarter Swap group and also in the first Christmas In July.

And looking through the introduction thread - I see many more ladies who I chatted with last year and hope to chat to again.

Christmas In July at QFD

Christmas In July 2011 is starting on 25th July at Quilt Fabric Delights


Projects from QFD Creative Team and guest designers Janelle Wind, Brenda Ryan, Melissa Grant and Bronwyn Hayes.

I joined in last year and had a great time - stitching, sewing, competitions and making friends (Hi Deanna and Florence!) It was my first time participating in an online event and it was certainly a learning experience. Can't believe a year has gone already! And how much more I know this time! Might even join in a chat.

Let me know if you are joining and I can keep an eye out for you in the QFD forum
