Oh dear, no sooner was the blog sorted out, when the comment form went awol ....... not just for me, but for Typepad generally. That too has now been fixed. Thank you all for your lovely comments - I was delighted to read that you had missed me!
I went off to patch'n'chat early this morning, all organised for the Linus day. I had a search in the shop for a fabric to team with the tractor fat quarter, but I couldn't find a green that looked right, so I opted for this fun chicken fabric
after adding the chicken borders, I layered the quilt, ready to do some machine quilting
it didn't take long long to do the quilting
Maureen was deciding what to do with these leftovers from a quilt she had made some years ago
Pam was making colourful blocks
Margaret, as always, was hand stitching her quilt
then there was the Friday cake ......... oh my, there was silence in the room as we tucked in to the most delicious chocolate sponge, topped with fresh cream and strawberries
so, to finish, what is the exciting news? Well, this time tomorrow, we will be in Majorca! Those of you who have been reading the blog for a while (thank you!) know that for several years now we have headed off to Majorca at this time of year. We are going for three weeks, and are staying in the same villa as last year. I am hoping that the villa still has a wi-fi connection, as I am taking my Hudl, so that I can share some photos with you. However if there is no wi-fi, unless I can find a cafe or a bar with wi-fi, you might have to do without me for three long weeks! But to finish, here is a photo to help you picture where we will be spending quite a lot of time!
