Had a lovely day today at Diana's Happy Room on a bag workshop with Diana, Christine and Penny, it's just great when you do a workshop and go home with the finished item, love the bag,  also came away with lots of ideas and feel really motivated . Thankyou Diana

thrilled with this bag I have made this week, it's lovely for holidays and days out, I am calling it my summer bag, it has a small pocket inside then a large zipped pocket and also a metal clasp

had a lovely time in Hunstanton last Sunday staying over until Monday. My sister was there with her husband in their motorhome a nephew and girlfriend were in a caravan and two other nieces and great nieces and nephew were there, it was my brother-in-laws 60th so we went up and surprised them and I took the presents I had made for the children whose dad is so very ill and they were thrilled with them. Only one little blip, we were nearly there and I said to himself "you did put the case in didn't you" reply "what case" so there we were with only the clothes we stood up in and absolutely no toiletries, oh well thank goodness for Sainsburys...

It's me again Mollie-Jayne just to say the cushion for Ben is now done and also I have now got my own little quilt. Well that's all for now hopefully in the next few weeks I will be off to my new home.

Mollie-Jayne

Hello
 My name is Mollie-Jayne and I am going over to Stowmarket in Suffolk to live with a little girl called Phoebe and am taking with me a notebook cover and notebook and a Grab Bag for her elder sister Millie and for her younger brother I shall be taking a cushion with a black and white cat and the name Rossi which is Ben's cat, these  young children have not seen their daddy for a month as he is very poorly in hospital and I hope we can perhaps bring a little smile to their faces. Am sure there will be a photo of the cushion when it is done.

Back Home

Now back from a lovely warm and restful holiday in Greece and today I am looking forward to my sit and sew day at Poppy Patch, seems ages since I did any sewing. Weekend before we went away we had family BBQ for Brian's birthday and my eldest son brought his new puppy, Dottie, she is lovely and we also had the lovely Betty Boo and the two of them got on very well

Rainy Tuesday

Well at least we had a couple of nice days over the Bank Holiday but now back to wet and cold can't wait to get to the sunshine in Greece, 12 days to go but with the state of my knees especially the right one which also has ligament damage I will probably have to spend the two weeks under a brolly on a sunbed round the pool with a good book then struggle down to the restaurants in the evening, just have to do it!!!! See the specialist 2 days after we get back and am expecting to hear I need both knees replacing, perils of getting old. Anyway I am still sewing did a blanket for my son's new puppy, a brown labrador they have named Dottie and when my friend saw it she wanted one for her cat hence the one for Smudge then I did the wall hanging which I love. Also I now have two quilts, one lapsize which at the moment I am doing some hand applique on then a bed quilt then I am going to hand quilt them both, there's a brave statement......
