Checking in !!!!!

Well I think I've just had my longest break ever from my blog, not out of choice mind you!!

I've had a pretty hectic few weeks & there is no let up for a lotta 

weeks yet. I have a big order of far too large roman blinds to get ready for the end of the month, 

also Aidan's nephew is getting married in Oct & lo & behold his lovely fiance asked 

me to make the bridesmaid dresses, three of them........for the end of Sept....

Waaaaaaa, aaaaa, aaaaa, no pressure eh!!!!!!!!

There's more after that........I won't bore you with the details, but it does mean 

a lot less time to quilt & crochet & blog :(

Anyway I have managed to almost finish my pinky, purple,beige.....

blanket

border complete just ten minutes ago

I'm gonna sew in my threads & then show it to you properly.

I do relish the thought of all those threads....anyone like to volunteer ?????

No......just thought I'd ask ;)

A wee cushion on the go also, at least I think it'll be a cushion

might get carried away & make another blanket

Have made up the backing for my pinwheel quilt

actually got to snap it on a good day....weirdest summer ever

weather's been going from this

to this

overnight, then back again.....I had huge pools in my gardens two days ago

Wow I tell you the downpour was torrential

Winter time is dryer. Ah well we have had a few days of great sunshine 

so we're pretty content with that.

Received this in the post......

Oh its such a lovely book, I can see myself taking so much

inspiration from it....like this one

isn't it a peach, now i just need to find the time.

Well that's my catch up, will be back in a day or two with the finished blanket.

Also want to catch up with your blogs

Hope you all have a great weekend

Lots of love Karen xxxxxx
