I had just mentioned to Malcolm yesterday that there hadn't been any sheepies on the blog recently (the swans have been hogging the limelight) ......... and then, this morning, there were sheepies in the field across the road!!
there was a definite feel of autumn when I was out in the garden taking photos this morning. The rowan tree is laden with berries, which the blackbirds love
and the climbing roses are hanging on
when the post arrived this morning - woo hoo, an envelope from far-flung places
there were birthday cards for both of us from Lee and her lovely family in Sydney. I think you will guess which one was for Malcolm and which one was for me!
I was very busy sewing at patch'n'chat this afternnon - but I wasn't doing my own sewing! Margaret had stitched a beautiful applique panel to put on a bag for her great-granddaughter, but she wasn't sure how to stitch it on. I started by showing her the stitch that I would use to do it ....... and ended up sewing the whole thing for her!
Margaret did allow me to have a break, so that I could enjoy the Friday cake - cute little cup cakes with chocolate icing and fresh strawberries
we have a busy weekend ahead, with our lovely neighbours (the shoe shop owners) coming over to Berwick on Sunday for a visit. I hope you have a wonderful weekend, love Anne
I was just about to publish the post when the robin turned up for a bath - so here are some extra photos!
