I had ordered something online at the start of the month, and waited and waited for it to arrive. When it didn't, I emailed the company. When they didn't teply I emailed again, and when there was no response, yesterday I phoned. Profuse apologies were offered, somehow my order just hadn't been dealt with. So I was delighted this morning when the postman came to the door with an envelope to be signed for .......
.... followed by an email apologising again and saying that the item in question had been sent out recorded delivery, and that hopefully by the time I read the email, the parcel would have been delivered. So what was it that I was so anxious to receive? A Supreme Slider, which I am confident will magically transform my efforts at free motion quilting into works of art
The pictures on the back of the package make it all look so simple ........ I will let you know on Monday how I get on with my first attempts!
Last night I knitted my little swatch for the Glimpse scarf. It proved to be quite straightforward!
The hole was really quite easy to make - I haven't done a pattern like this before, so I'm looking forward to knitting the scarf, as it is very pretty
The front garden was alive with sparrows this morning, but one little blue tit was brave enough to use the peanut feeder
I love the bold markings on the male sparrows - they would make a good quilting design ....
It's Friday, so of course that means it is time for cake!! Today we had Annette's lovely light cupcakes ....
...... topped with chocolate sprinkles - delicious
Over the weekend, as well as playing with using my new Slider, I will also be making some more things for my sales table for next Saturday (oops, starting to panic slightly!!) I hope you all have a good weekend, love Anne
