In April , Sharon and I went on a quilting course at Peterborough ,at Art and Stitch ,owned by Angela ,our tutor that day was Pam ,such lovely and talented Ladies ,along with Barbara ,here is a picture of Sharon ,hard at work ,dont know why we didnt take a pic of me, to busy sewing (or nattering) I suppose !
And here is the quillow that Pam was teaching us to make ,Id like to say mine is finished .it is in mauves and lavender colourways ...but erm I have been busy , ,....www.artandstitch.co.uk
For my Kate's BirthdayMay 16th , I made her a handbag ,she loved it ,especially as I put a sheep on it ,(she loves sheep ! )now everyone wants one a bag ...not a sheep !
and below, a picture of the other side of the bag ....
And then ,the highlight of my last few weeks ,we went down to Portsmouth to welcome home my Grandson Iain ,who had been on board ship the HMS LANCASTER ,after seven month tour ,so we stayed overnight ,in order to see the ship come into Portsmouth harbour early Thusday morning May 27th (lots more on that in another entry ) so I made myself an over night bag ,
And finally has anyone ,in the UK been watching ,the seach for the girl to play Andrew LLoyd- Webers version of Dorothy ,it has been wonderful and great entertainment for a Saturday evening ,and now a very talented young lady called Danielle was chosen and she gets to wear the ruby slippers in Lord Andrew's stage version of the Wizard of Oz .... And, the programe has now finished, I miss it ..... and guess what ,we have wall to wall football coverage of the World cup Grrr ....
