The holiday was fab - an apartment owned by friends of ours with a private terrace and a shared private pool - the beach was 400 steps away and bars and restaurants were not much further, so there was a lot of sitting here
Or swimming and sunbathing here
And there may have been a fair amount of food and drink!
But at times it was too hot to sit outside so I worked on this, finishing all the EPP (except one triangle top right - I didn't take quite enough LV fabric
and quilting with the 4 thread I brought, and finishing it with a round of EPP in the backing fabric to maintain the shaped edges
There was also a fair amount of hand quilting these blocks from the Gillian Travis Interchange Applique class
Even some ironing - but only blocks, not clothes!!!!
And I learned that how ever lovely my sharpied beads necklace looks, if I wear it all day when the weather is very hot and I'm sweaty . . . there is a risk I may look very bruised where the colour has come off!
Then the holiday ended and we sadly had to come home - however, within 24 hours this beauty had come to live with me, so it's not all bad!
