August: Summer Time

Summer has hit, and when I say Summer, I of course mean rain and winds! Saturday we were lucky enough to have a day off from the rain and able to sit in CD gardens - always wonderful to sit and sew, chat and laugh among the wonderful surroundings.

It was a productive day for all:

A quick show and tell from CD - a gift received a few years ago - finished and looking amazing, it did however make the rest of us question where we had put ours, and we really should get them finished!

CD working on a commission for Christmas gifts - always exciting when people  like your 'makes' enough to purchase them.

HW working on sewing boxes for her Mum's quilting show, to be sold for Charity. Such beautiful colours.

CB trying hard to complete a project started back in 2012 (I know, I know....) nearly there. First and last attempt at a large cross stitch.

HS putting the finishing touches to a baby quilt - looking wonderful - great colours.

AB continuing to hook herself a blanket.

At the end of the day, progress had been made by all....

Lunch was amazing as always - it's funny how we always dig in before remembering to take a picture.  Again gone before the camera left the pocket......
