Is it an age thing? Every time I go to write a blog post I want to start with a reference to how quicklty that month went!
Anyway here is August in Crafty photos!
Hexi flowers received from a Facebook swap
Oldest daughters other half's Birthday pressie (deliberatly not symetrical!)
A fun afternoon at Chertsey Museum mark making of fabric
and mark making on hands (oops, it was gone after two days!)
I borrowed a pattern for a wrap around craft apron. I made the lined version but it was warmer that I needed so I had another go using half the fabric and a load of bias binding - it worked great!
Mum requested a small quilt for the top of her sewing table:
The village library was officially opened with a visit from Peppa Pig - so I had to get a cuddle!
Lots of people attend the combine coffee morning and library
A quilt for a friend's 60th - and I gave her matching fabric pens so everyone could write on it
It will probably live at their new beach hut!
I even braved the sea for a swim!
Jackie came for a visit and we did some long overdue touristy things . . . Windsor Castle was great - we visited the Moat Garden which in 35 years of living within 5 miles of I have never been to!
Loved it!!!
We did of course do some sewing too!
And we had a family dad for Jim's birthday: we hired a boat and had a day trip on the Thames
Miss you Jackie - when are you coming back???
