Moved

Well we have finally moved in, getting straight but still unpacking boxes, we love our new home and just pleased to be settled before Xmas. I have vague memories of times past when I did sewing, but I expect those days will return, I am at the moment trying to sort out my new workroom, I think my new years resolution will be NOT TO BUY ANY FABRIC. No pics at the moment but a good evening was had by all last night at our Hamtune xmas meeting so do have a look on Hamtune's blog for the fun we had and pics. Wishing you all a merry christmas and a happy new year. I am actually in Spain for a month from early January so may not be back on blog until February.

Busy times

Managed to get my grandson's quilt done ready for Xmas, just have to do the label, am very pleased with it although it was hard on the eyes doing quilt as you go with the dark colours so now can concentrate on moving, we exchanged contracts yesterday and are moving Thursday 8th December so now I have to go pack some more boxes. Will post some more when we have moved.

Bedford Workday

What a great day was had by all at the workday over in Bedford on Monday. Several different projects were being done, table mats, runners, I did a table centrepiece also some christmas projects were being made. Many thanks to Annette and Sue for organising the day and thankyou for the photos Sue, I have spent the last 1/2 hour trying to put them on my blog but computer says 'NO' Look forward to the next workshop.. r est of this week is going to be spent thinking about Hamtunes show on Saturday and what has to be done especially after I had this dream the other night that it was Saturday and later in the day realised I had forgotten all about the show, Diana was not amused when I told her, anyway I am sure it will be a great success and an enjoyable day. Am forgetting that I am also trying to sort out my workroom and do packing for when we move hopefully in about 4 - 6weeks, for xmas I would just like 26hour days and eight day weeks

Hamtune Quilters were on tour again Sunday, this time we were at the Knitting and Stitching show at Alexandra Palace, fabulous day, personally this is my favourite venue with so many different craft stalls and once again the weather was fantastic. No problems with the journey this time lovely driver and as I told the coach company this morning there were 38 of us and the driver could have been toy boy to any one of us. I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.
