So far so good - my January plans are working out. It's been a long time between drinks, so to speak, but finally I have another A Gardeners Journal block done(just pretend it was finished in August!)
I finished up this wee needleroll yesterday, took about 20 minutes, only it had to wait 2 and a half years to get done. Better late than never!
Isn't the little dragonfly button sweet.
In My Garden Needleroll - Shepherds Bush
Fabric and threads as kitted
Our camping trip was fabulous, got home and realised I have no tent or campsite photos, but here are some lake photos I did manage. The weather was great while we were away, though we were worried when it started to pour on the way there! But it stopped to let us get our tent up, and by the next morning all the rain was over. Everyone came home with a bit of sunburn - Ouch. Lots of fun, swimming in the lake, boating and time spent with friends. The girls start back at school next week, so that brings the summer holidays almost to an end. :-(
And last but certainly not least, I have joined Peg and Kris with their OPAM challenge for 2011, lucky I finished the needleroll yesterday, or I would not be off to a good start. lol
Now I have to set up a list and button for my sidebar and get busy! Between OPAM and Sew It's Finished I want to get more done than my miserable dozen or so finishes from last year.
Lovely day here today, I'm off to the garden for some much needed weeding.......have a great day, Nicky
