              Wow! I had such a good time. And thanks Ritzy for making me such a pretty dress. It was a miracle that I didn't end up with blue frosting all over my dress. :roll: So lovely to see Eli looking so healthy and happy in the bosom of his family. Thanks Ritzy for taking us all along.

                  Flat Rita and Eli, who would have thought it! Glad to see that cute baby turn 1 year old. And Flat Rita, I love the yellow dress. It looks so nice on you!

                    After Rita gave us the slip at the Festival of Quilts I was quite surprised when she popped up at The Great Northern Quilt Show in Harrogate with no less than Jennie Raiment :shock:



                    Susan Briscoe wanted to take her to Japan and I'd think she'd have gone if Rosemary hadn't remarked she looked a bit thinner

                          By the way it was jolly lucky that Flat Rita came with Wendy - I was expecting someone shorter (with a sheep :wink: ).... and she was expecting some one taller :lol: At least Rita was the right height 8) :lol:
