    I have down-sized, hoping Busy might be able to see?

    Yes AuntyRach, it came up straight away! The photo isn't very big though. It's lovely. Thank you  :)

    I haven’t been able to get into the Forkers site - don’t know why - I haven’t been using bad words I think! I’ll try again now that I’m on here.

    Patchwork group this pm but not a lot of patchwork going on.  The committee has announced a fund raising Open Day next year and asked us all to make things to sell.  They provide the materials and we make them up.



    So far, an apple thingy and a chuck for a kitchen note pad and pencil and more recently fabric "baskets" for bread rolls.  I've embroidered the black panels on the blue on cos there is no black in the blue fabric and I thought it looked odd.  Didn't like the black ribbons supplied for the pink one so used beads instead.

    Can't help wondering who will buy this stuff.

    Really nice neat sewing and colour choices Obelixx.  I hope someone likes them enough to buy them. They should. 
    Im still knitting the striped cardigan. Not sure why I’m bothering, but I’ve gone so far that I need to keep going.

    @Obelixx the baskets look great, could use them for anything.

    Last Saturday went to see keith, he asked me to do some cutting out for his cards.

    I use a small pair of scissors to cut them out and a large pair for the picture that goes on the front of the card.


    This is the card, I use double sided tape to stick it on.

    Wow, very impressive. Lots of careful work and planning in it.

    Garden club plant fair on Saturday with all sorts of nurserymen and women coming to sell plants so today some members got together to make decorations for our own stands - info, refreshments etc.   Here are some of the creations.  Amazing what you can do with a few old wine boxes and frames.
