Last night I joined Wendy and the girls for a night of stitchingI didnt get quite as much done as I would have liked because I had an unexpected visit from my ex SIL
I appliqued these pansies for a future project
Sewed the binding on my latest "Lorraine's Flowers runner and that's about it
This one is for me I usually make them for special people in my life.
And I received my gifts for Christmas In July swap
Looking forward to opening these
Nice to have a surprise visitor.

ReplyDeleteJules: Hi Illene, so sorry not to have visited your blog for ages. Comps and life in general... But I have not forgotten you and your family and your wonderful garden and sewing work. How lovely to then find Pansies ( for thought ) when I just took a quick peek. Had to find time to say that I do still think of you and others I used to visit on-line. Very best wishes. Jules.
