The South Esk River is once again in flood and it's a wonderful sight. I don't have any current photos so here are some from 2 years ago. This is the Gorge Cottage built for the gatekeeper. It's now accomodation for popel who participate in the Launceston Artists in Residence Program run by our local council. I can just walk down hill and then along the Gorge walking track to see all of this, I am so lucky!</p>Franhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18120262555246191591noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977531062340603761.post-85644850639631463832007-08-16T21:25:00.000-07:002008-11-13T01:52:31.791-08:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOH6yL-ndg3cYx88nRydj0MqfETgtGaqhXRP4u2I_vA06z7Y87IHfxlmmF3Qbpzgu_wzXUfIRg2xD9EeJ0u734q88n1mUyaProPo8yzggNal8c2H_NUMReIb2ObenvARifRTqak4zMORxK/s1600-h/BOM+Leanne+001.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5099521933120964722" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOH6yL-ndg3cYx88nRydj0MqfETgtGaqhXRP4u2I_vA06z7Y87IHfxlmmF3Qbpzgu_wzXUfIRg2xD9EeJ0u734q88n1mUyaProPo8yzggNal8c2H_NUMReIb2ObenvARifRTqak4zMORxK/s320/BOM+Leanne+001.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div>We have several Blocks of the Month on offer.

I also didn't have up-to-date photos and prices to use. That will be rectified this weekend and I can show new fabrics, quilts and maybe a picture of the partners if they're not too shy!Franhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18120262555246191591noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7977531062340603761.post-87585101461762431292007-08-16T03:35:00.000-07:002007-08-16T04:09:18.158-07:00First post!!!<span style="font-family:georgia;">This will be an infrequent post to share new product, reintroduce old favourites and tell you all of the news happening at The Quilt Patch.</span>Franhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18120262555246191591noreply@blogger.com1
