Oh get a room you two.
We had a lovely long weekend away for our wedding anniversary.
A night in our favourite hotel in Grange over Sands, then three nights
at the caravan.
Thursday we had a drive out to Coniston where the annual Vintage pop up shop
was in full flow and I picked up this lovely basket to use as a travelling craft
case when we are away.
I did a bit of stitching and watched a workshop on the Korean stitching
technique Bojagi, pronounced po-ja-gi.
I’ll be taking part in the workshop when I see the replay of it.
One of the techniques I'm going to have a go at is “pinch stitch”
I took a screenshot of it from the workshop.
Anyone who knows me, knows that there’s not a cat in hell chance of
me changing my 18 year old cyber green VW beetle anytime soon.
However, I would add this beauty to my collection given the chance.
I’ve spotted it several times when we’ve been around Grange over sands
and keep thinking of putting a note on the windscreen asking them to let
me know if they fancy selling it.
I have my suspicions though that it’s owned by a lady who probably
loves it as much as I love mine.
Still not made it to my desk as the wandering welder celebrated his
72nd birthday yesterday (more snogging heehee).
We had a drive out to friend Emma’s gorgeous flower and coffee shop
to buy some flowers for Philip’s twin sister Elena.
Such a beautiful autumnal bouquet, I wanted to keep it for myself.
of an eye before next week when we set off again for another stint at
the caravan. This time we are meeting up with my sister and Mum who
are staying in Grange Over Sands.
Here’s my nod to the cooler weather, it’s a flannel petticoat
Here’s my nod to the cooler weather, it’s a flannel petticoat
under a summer frock. I’ve not got the opaque tights out yet
I’m hanging on a bit longer to summer.
And here’s what I’m reading now after finishing Claire Fuller’s
Unsettled Ground. I’m in need of a lighter read.
