The girls and I took their God Mother and God Sister out for their combined birthdays this year: afternoon tea on a vintage London Double Decker bus
All that food plus savoury muffins, and scones with cream and jam (or should that be jam and cream?) and lots of tea of coffee - a great afternoon out
And we've finally got around to getting a gardening in to hack this lot down. Behind that forest is my beautiful church - but you wouldn't know it.
The gardener got let down by his partner so he got his two lads to help - they did a great job first of all giving me back my view of the trees
and then cutting the last few down. The stumps will protect the garden from un-authorised visitors, and if the apple tree in the garden gets too big that will have the same treatment!!!
At Chertsey Museum we had some show and tell of the handy pods and foundation paper piecing
and some Dresden plates were created (I was too late to get the other photos!)
I started this blog for me - it expanded to show BFF Jackie what I was doing - and a few others have invited themselves too - everybody welcome! Mostly about patchwork, with random comments about embroidery, family and life in general, come on in, put your feet up, and I'll put the [virtual] kettle on.
