We have been for a walk along the beach most mornings
Everything gets a thorough check!!
I have finished a table runner for Ingrid, made from fabric from Donna's stash.
and a table topper for Jenny in the same fabric, lots of interesting recipes on this fabric.
The willy wagtail came along on or walk one day for a little while.
My helpful supervisor was on hand as I lay out the International Sisters blocks one afternoon
Right on hand!!!
So he had to have a squishy hug!! (Not sure the supervisor was impressed!!)
I made a shopping bag one afternoon this week when I should have been doing something else, the fabric was a remnant from a local store.
I had some happy mail this week
a new pattern book.....like I need another one!!
And a beautiful bag made from kimono fabric and a postcard from Pamela. We had an email discussion about the lack of snail mail these days and how we both enjoy receiving some. So we decided to do a postcard swap, or an I will surprise you with mail sometime thing. Pamela sure surprised me. Thank you very much Pamela.
I have finished the sewing on this block, now it needs to be mounted on a 10 x 10 inch board. That is the job for today!! But first sadly I have to vaccum......sigh!!!
Off I go!
Happy stitching.
Wonderful photos and I love the one of you and the supervisor, just great. Your sewing always blows me away, wow. Love the runner and topper for the table, and what a magnificent bag. Have fun with your happy mail, too! Hugs, Valerie

You have to love receiving parcels in the mail. A lovely gift. Your finishes have turned out well too. I’m sure the Supervisor didn’t mind his hug.
ReplyDeleteUgh, vacuuming! LOL Pamela's bag is a beauty and I love the butterfly made with hexagons. I've not seen that before. Thanks for sharing your wonderful walk and companions.
