In, Out and a Finish

What fun when I opened my mail box today. A white and red card. Into the post office I
went to collect my parcel. Oh yes it was my
PIF from Andi . I could not wait to open it.

  Was delighted to find a journal with a beautiful Linen Cover. The hexagon flower has the tiniest of stitches.  Thank you Andi.

Have completed my  Pillow Swap and it has flown over to my partner. Hope she likes it.


Also finished another project for my  String challenge. I am enjoying cutting up lots of fabric that has been in my stash for such a long time and making something useful with it.

For Sunny

Sunny is one of my blogging mates so I am doing this post for her.

Another perfect day so of course I just had to go for a walk along the beach. I am always surprised that there is no one else enjoying the beautiful surrounds. Just me and some strange creatures that washed up on the beach. And plenty of seaweed too.


Will do a crafty post tomorrow.

Out again!

Today was our monthly luncheon of the Red Hatters Group.We met at the cafe' by the sea. We were small in number but enjoyed each others company and the views while eating our meal.


  


I am the second from the right !
Do you like our View?
           
Afterwards I went for a long walk to the point. Wanted to make the most of our beautiful sunny weather as it will be winter soon enough.

Out for the Day.

We were lucky to have a glorious Autumn day    
for our planned walk with our exercise group.
Eighteen ladies climbed into cars and we went          
to a spot called Devlin Pool.
On arrival we donned our hats made sure we all had  a water bottle and off we went over the bridge.

Along the winding track we went. Up the hill.What are you looking at ???


WOW !!!  Beautiful views.


Onward and upward I went. I could hear the ladies chatting behind me. Then a voice called "Stop, we are going back now"   So I turned and followed.
                     There they are. Slowly I caught up with the group.
When we reached the bridge again it was really nice to just lean on the rail and look at the water.
Into the cars again and off to Bentwood Olive Grove for lunch. There sat nestled amongst the Beautiful trees and gardens. We were served the most scrumptious lunch. I had chicken souffle, lemon tart with cream and a cappuccino. After we had finished we decided our group could change our name from " Building Better Bones" to "Building Better Bellies"  Had a great day. Thank You Ladies.

Nearly Finished !!!

In the middle of last year I stared this window. Then it just got too hot in the shed. Now it has been cooler I have enjoyed doing it again .





It is to go in here. Above the door my DH is GOING to make.

This afternoon I have finally finished the glass work. Now I need to solder the joints and putty the window. Then it will be ready to have a frame make. OPPS!! Forgot to edit my feet.
