A few Gingers this week : I was asked to do one as a mascot for the local lunch club (they already have one for their coffee morning)
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.

2021 Week 32
I finished a crewel type feather embroidery (the outline was deigned on the PC and Lizzie embroidered it for me, so I js coloured in the sections with thread!!!)
These amazing fabrics are from South Africa - they need the *perfect* project so I'm pinning idea here https://www.pinterest.co.uk/slikstitches/shwe-shwe-inspiration/ - do let me know if you have any ideas, they are stiffer than patchwork fabric, almost waxed
This hexie quilt is growing - slightly unusual dimensions as it's a hug rather than a bed quilt
Hope you have managed to craft too!

Next month one of our two village summer fairs will be returning after two years - the theme is Hatland so I thought a ginger with lots of hats was a good way to while away a few hours!
Stitch started back on Saturday - so lovely to meet people in real life!!! Not many pics, but lots of organising and sorting, and a little bit of chatting!!!
