Woo hoo and I had company for a change (apart from hubby who really doesn't see what all the fuss is about). Shez came to visit. If the truth be known we didn't start stitching til late, but I did make some progress. I decided to do some more on a Gail Pan class project "Summer Harvest"
And today I had done enough blocks to put a small section together -
And just some show and tell from an outing with friends on Thursday -
Found a wonderful second hand shop that we could have spent hours in, and some treasures came home. The tin on the right I thought Shez could use for one of her wonderful sewing tins.
Oh and there was some fabric too (as you knew there would be). A wonderful shop I always enjoy visiting "Quilters Harvest". And they had a sale - buy a metre and get half a metre free, so of course I had to buy a metre of the lovely mottled stitchery fabric on the left and I was forced to take the rest for nothing. Cheryl
