Yesterday I spent some quality time with Mr Gocco and once again rekindled my love for him.
I seriously love that machine.
I printed some little girl panels
I printed some badge panels
and I printed some little owls.
and I printed some little owls.
Today I was invited to go and talk to the group at the Ballarat Quilt -In .
I had a blast ! They were a very fun bunch of people and they kindly laughed in all the right places ! I raved on and on about craft and blogging and even did a bit of shopping before I left.
Now if only I could manage a crafty finish tomorrow, without any major mishaps......I could be heading to weekend nirvana !
They bought you off with cake didn't they? You are such a cheap date! Glad it went well. Fingers crossed for tomorrow's crafting.
ReplyDeleteOh she's adorable!! I was just talking GOCCOs last week, i just need someone to hold my hand, buy one & all the accessories for me, then show me how to do it all. Your work is so sweet, love the girl!! I can imagine listening to one of your talks, giggling, perhaps even heckling, just for fun. Love Posie
ReplyDeleteLove your gocco prints so good !Craft away tomorrow ....do some for me too !
ReplyDeleteshe is a very polite gocco girly.........LOL
ReplyDeleteI understand your love of the machine, I have it too.
ReplyDeleteLove your prints, I've never done it on fabric before though, it looks gorg, is it Hard?

Serious gocco envy here!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you had fun, were you able to resist the urge to swear? ;)
How cute!
ReplyDeleteI wish I could kindly laugh at the right places one day when listening to you ;o)
I like what Fer said about resisting to swear....maybe the badges will say "#@$%" of the week! ha ha
ReplyDeleteI do love your little owls and I think weekend nirvana could be a little tooo much to wish for.
ReplyDeleteheart Mr Gocco
ReplyDeletea print gocco has been on my craft wish list almost as long as a kitchen-aid mixer...I don't seen any hope of either being brought by santa clause.. I don't think I have been that good this year! :o)
ReplyDeletefabulous as always. though I imagine the owl swearing a blue streak for some reasong. O_o
yep gocco envy!
ReplyDeleteI would love to go one of your talks Jodie!!! I am loving your Goccoing especially the owls. I have been shut out of your giveaway :( I am too slow but I must just say anyway it looks like a gorgeous book with full size patterns! it's got to be good
ReplyDeleteGocco looks like so much fun! 'Specially love the little girls. Can't wait to see how you fill in the bubbles!

When I grow up I want to play with one of those machines. I have been amusing myself with lots of "... of the weeks'
ReplyDeleteTosser, Crawler, Dickhead, Angel, Nutter- oh, loads- have FUN with that!
You do make some fab things with that gocco...!
ReplyDeleteI borrow a friends Gocco when I need it, but yes I have been dreaming of my very own for a quite a while now!
ReplyDeleteHi Jody, I was at the Ballarat Quilt in, loved your talk. You are one funny lady, I think you shocked a few but 99% of us loved you. Went and saw your blog, its great. I even started to blog again myself. Big Deal 57, mine is called. Love your input. I am only a beginner...
ReplyDeleteKaren S
Did you know that your giveaway has exploded? With 205 comments - the door is closed - phew - you just HAD to do it!!!!
ReplyDeleteApparently I JUST missed you at the patchwork shop yesterday arvo., bet you gave the quilt-in ladies a run for their money. Love the little owlies and I want at least one of those little girls to say something sweary, just because. No craftiness for me today; mooching around Castlemaine admiring open gardens and eating the best-ever lemon meringue cupcake. Hope your crafty Sunday was ace.
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to know; WHAT of the week???
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to go home (i'm at school, but mr. gocco lives at home) and have bonding time with my own gocco! were you using the stamp kit for fabric?
ReplyDeleteHmm, unlike Ladydi I am dreading to know... WHAT of the week! I am too scared to ask... in case you tell!!!
ReplyDelete(She said it!!! I knew she would, but then... she did!!!) You madam are not ladylike... which admittedly is a damn fine thing!!
I imagine that little girl looks as angelic as you did when you were her age... oh wait, of course, you are her age. Forgive my impertinence... I'm not ladylike either!
Here's to Weekend Nirvana... with cake obviously.
Hi Jodie i was at the quilt-in sat and you were amazing to listen too,so funny and full of information and a very clever lady as well.
ReplyDeleteSo enjoyed meeting all your little felted charactors.
You are an inspiring lady who i dont thinks sits still for 5 mins,cant wait till i see you again,i was the lady who was talking to you as you were setting up though you proberly dont remember as there where so many ladies there.
Hope you had as much fun as we did listening to you.
Have a great day Jodie.
Love your Gocco stuff Jod. Was it Nirvana in the end?
ReplyDeleteOooohhh! LOVE the owls, they are just gorgeous. I have a little owl thing happening at the moment ;)
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm...love my Mr Gocco too. Do you use fabric inks? or the ordinary inks? My fabric inks are such crap colours :( Better go and see if my Mr G is still talking to me!
ReplyDeleteOh how I'd love a Gocco! And oh how I LOVE those owls! Fabulous! Locket xx
