Bank Holiday Monday


Thought I'd share a few photos with you of more things I've made for the festival in June. As you can see aprons have made an appearance - McCall's 2947. There's really 2 aprons - both with the apple fabric but one with matching pockets and ties and the other with contrasting ones (as I ran out of apple fabric).



Next are yet more bags - made from the remnants I bought from Fenwicks - I'm rather pleased with them. Hopefully it'll all sell.



And finally I said in my 7 random facts that I love a cup of tea - well in the UK you can get a cup of tea in a pub these days - very civilised. And I can't wait until the 1st July when the smoking ban comes intro force and the pubs will all be smoke free. Hurrah...... Well this one of the pubs in the village Ye Olde Red Lion - very traditional looking with a good menu and great guest beers - it's in the CAMRA book. If you're passing, pop in - it's well worth a visit.

Boy, looks like you've been busy! Great looking bags and apron! I sure wish I had that pub just around the corner from me -- I love the look of the village buildings!

Dennis...

...well unfortunately Dennis died last month. Although we were very upset at the time we realise he had a very happy long life (18 years) and he spent his last day in the garden sunning himself . Everyone who came to the house met him - whether they wanted to or not; he was very friendly . So here are a last few photos of him looking like the fat happy orange cat that he was...

At long last ......

At long last it's finished. My first large (96 x 78 inches) quilt. I'm really pleased with the pieced binding. It took a while to finish off - but I really like it. I've still got a bit of tidying up and I need to add a label - but the hard slog is finished. So I feel a bit lost now without a huge quilt to sit and stitch when I fancy. You can see from below I've already got the fabric for my next project from Strawberry Fayre. And yet again it was great service - really fast. I've washed the fabric and now it needs a good press. I also need to make sure I think about how the cut the fabric so I don't end up with lots of bits. The larger pieces I'll piece to make the back.
