ALTA STREET

Riana Nel thought we should all gather at Alta Street at 6 in the morning to wish her a Happy Birthday, as it was a very special day. She turned 60. We arranged with her husband, Albert, as they were on their way to Clarens for the weekend. He bought us some snacks to have with our champagne, but Alta, not knowing a thing about our visit, handed the snacks to her grandchildren. Fortunately Riana, being a very organized woman packed us each our own breakfast muffin. She also packed a breakfast basket for Alta and Albert. THANK YOU Albert for keeping our surprise a surprise, as you can see we caught her in her pjs.

GOODY BAGS





Some of the ladies in our group offered up a few of their Saturdays to work on projects for our 2013 Quilt Festival. As you can see why they quilt so beautiful is because they eat such yummy lunch. I wonder if it was the food that inspired them to get together ..... Thank you ladies for being such stars.
