21st July: Chelsea Flower Show - Part Two

We had booked this weekend for our Project Linus Weekend - a whole weekend - Friday night until Sunday afternoon - a weekend full of quilting, chat, food and drink and most of all excellent company.  But of course that was cancelled back in June when CD had her minor water problem down at the BH! We have turned it into a one day event at CD's again.  We had all decided a few weeks back that we would all use the time to finish existing quilts/projects rather than start new ones - giving Project Linus a miss this year.

Saturday came, along with the wonderful sunshine (we have been so very luckily weather wise when we have met at CD's - allowing us to make the most of the outdoor space she has). As soon as we reached CD's, tea and a blueberry muffin (made by HW) was consumed and then a trip round the garden - amazing what a difference a few weeks makes.
