Looks like this is the end of Patchwork Quilt. The wall the cache was hidden in has been given some much needed maintenance, and in the process our cache has become a Time Capsule. I have taken photos so that anyone who wants to can find it easily now, you just won't be able to do more than pat its lid. It's been cemented into the wall.
Our phone originally led us to a different location but a look at the photo showed us where to narrow our search. Still couldn't find it though.
The chief applied his spider sense and came up with this one when many wouldn't.
Thanks mykaat.
Chiefton!!!

Found in the first place we looked. If only we had found it the first time we looked there it would have saved us 10 minutes of scouring the surrounding area before we went back to that first spot

Out for a bike ride along the Warburton Rail trail on a lovely day. This was a quick find during our lunch break.
Thank you mykaat.
Thank you mykaat.
This one was certainly well hidden and took some time before we came up with the find. Log signed and all back safe again . Lovely spot with no muggles allowed us a good search. Thanks
Stealth needed today. Signed log and a quick replace. Beautiful spot on a beautiful day.
* Mistakingly posted this after writing it for another post. Still, we found this one. Great spot and was very quiet - only the sound of the running water to hear. Thanks for the beautiful spot.

Out and about on a country caching trip, stopping for a few in the Yarra Valley as we drive through on a beautiful day.
We found this one, logged our presence here and continued on to the next cache.
Thanks mykaat for this placement.

A quick and easy find as we cache our way through the area with mcsee&petal today. There sre some beautiful rhododendrons in full bloom close to gz too. Thanks for bringing us here and thanks for the cache.
Out on a small adventure to warby caching and pizza hunting. Beeeeaaaaitiful evening tonight. TFTC
Rare daytime trip with Gunks. Beautiful spot. Gunks on song finding these today. Tftc
As part of LOGtober I am trying to catch up on past logs. Best i can tell from my phone this was one of the caches I grabbed as part of Geocaching Day. It's a really lovely area down here and I am really looking forward to exploring it a lot more now that we have bought a house in Healesville. Thanks Mykaat for the cache looking forward to finding the rest of your hides.

Thanks mykaat

Having moved ahead of Ruverbug Jam & OzHockeyChick we stopped here on our way through this afternoon.
A straight forward find with +Wife as the geomutts made mud pies in the shallows.
Returned the cache to it's very secure hiding spot, so that the rest of the team could also find it on their way past shortly.

On the way through Warby and up the mountain this was on our way.
Nice little hide and quick find.

Waferthin, Bendsinister and I were out training today for Oxfam's Trailwalker event scheduled for April 2017. We arrived at the carpark and after catching my breath we headed over to GZ and began the hunt. We initially struggled to find it as the natural camouflage was very good and our GPSr had us searching way beyond the trail. Finally Bendsinister found this elusive cache and we all signed our names and replaced as found. TFTC mykaat.
Out for an Oxfam Trailwalker training hike with BendSinister & robinyang, we made a pit stop here to catch our breath, put some food & water into tired bodies before heading uphill to Mt Little Joe.
A cache nearby so we couldn't resist it, a tricky one this, GPS jumping around a bit made it hard. Both BemdSinsiter & I had searched the cache location but BendSinister's experience showed & he went back for a second look, delved deeper & pulled forth the cache, the log was signed & off we went, onwards & upwards towards Mt Little Joe . Thanks for the cache mykatt.

Found with Waferthin and robinyang during a short break in our hike. Today's lowest D and T ratings by a significant margin, but it had us detained for a not inconsiderable span of time. One potentially promising location bore no fruit on initial examination, but a more, er, aggressive approach got it sorted on the second pass. Thanks mykaat!
What a cool trail. I'll have to come back up here to walk or bike it some day soon!
My first visit to this part of the world. My friend lives nearby and has helped me find caches in my home town. It was great to have a local guide to share the natural beauty of this area. The search was fairly prolonged because we bypassed the spot several times. Just about to give up when I checked again and there it was.
Thanks for placing this cache.

Wow an amazing spot on our travels to Mt Donna Buang. Geokids loved the view of the river but too cold to swim. TNLN TFTC
On our way to the micro event and thought we would get a few along the way. Found with blazer triaz. Even tho it is raining still a beautiful spot. Tftc
The logbook and cache contents have been well dried out in the dehydrator. Its back and operational again.
Found it - it is a bit damp but still able to log. Sad the cafe has closed but the path and little seat were lovely
Did pretty badly on the last cache attempt - so I had to lock one down & end the day on a high. This was terribly easy to find and raised my mood somewhat

Out on a Friday afternoon grabbing just a few caches before the sun goes down.
Easy park, walk and grab.
love the nearby seat under the tree.
Cheers for the cache

Found with taurus1955 and BentleyTB before we visited The Patchwork Teahouse for lunch. This took longer to locate than it should have. Lovely area. TFTC
Coming to the Patchwork Teahouse for lunch today had to collect a few caches along the way. Had to resort to the hint for this one eventually as we were looking in the wrong place, out with misschief18 and Bentley TB

The teams LinearZZ and ThetaZ are on a caching drive up the Yarra Valley towards Warburton. Finally within the precincts and a nice cafe beckoned but we steeled ourselves and looked for a white tree (many choices). The cache was hard to extract and harder to replace at 15:15. TFTC
We spent a few minutes looking in this lovely spot, but then had the cache in hand. TFT,
Sad tidings...the patchwork shop is closing down. Came up with a newbie to buy up big and get a cache. Contents damp. TNLN TFTC
A day of wandering around Warburton and Healesville enjoying the relative mid week quiet.
After driving back and forth past this cache over the last couple of days we finally stopped to make a quick find.
Thank you, mykaat, for this cache.

Nice spot loved the cache. Despised to drop off a trackable I wish it luck. TFTC
Took the wife and kids on a day trip to Warburton to grab a voucher at a close by cafe for a Christmas present. A nice walk along the river and enough time to grab this cache - Tftc
First find for the day !! The 2 drakes are cycling in the Giro Della Donna, so geodog and the mother hen are caching !!! Cache is slightly damp and mouldy. Could do with a little love. Thanks for bringing me to this beautiful river walk.
Easy find although it was a bit hard getting our position correct because it was jumping all over the place. It sometimes said we were in the middle of the creek even though we were on the path. Maybe a reception thing... TFTC
Find #3 on my Warburton wander. It didn't take too long to zone in on GZ and the hide. Contents were a little damp but I was able to sign the log with no issues. Traded a marble for a domino. TFTC!
#357 up this way for Father's Day and decided to go for a wander along the river caching as we went. What a beautiful day for it as well. After waiting out a few muggles we quickly had it hand. TFTC
This was a quick stop on the way up the mountain and whenever you spot you have to check for caches.. this one was 30 metres away from where we parked. Great caches and some good swaps for the kids. TFTC
After grabbing a coffee up the street I made this my last find in town before heading towards home, this one was soon found after a short search. Thanks mykaat for the cache.
After a fun day in the snow with Nut bear we picked this one up on the way home. A nice easy find as it was a bit exposed so we rehid it better.
Thanks mykaat for the cache and bringing us to this pretty spot.

Out and about with joeyjoejoe81 to replace one of my caches at mt donna why not do a few along the way tftc.
Much confusion between clue; coordinates and comments but found eventually. With kleinermauschen
Found with laurenxelisee. last cache of the day. Took us a bit to find. The clue was more accurate than the coordes.
Found at 12:33 PM GAFF3 - not hat the hint helped any.
Whenever we see a 1.0/1.0 cache we know we are going to be in trouble and sure enough we were right on this one. The co-ords were a bit out and there were many spots to search in.
The Quilt shop is a bit of an institution here and we always wonder if we should take quilting up?
Thanks mykaat.
