a weekend at belstead house

i had a very good weekend at belstead house with girls from romford and essex embroiderers guild it was really nice ot meet you all. lots of creative work and everyone had some fun - i hope!

i also enjoyed meeting ruth smith from southampton and was fascinated by her folded books i am going to have a go at making myself one when i get time.

talking about time i have made 2 peg bags today - yes you did read that correctly - why? well i suppose the answer is because i can - also i hope they are going to be useful at their intended destinations. is it avoidance tactics though? i seem to have so many things i need to be doing and end up doing something silly.

i'm down at quilters haven tomorrow doing a bit more 'melting and burning' and then friday we should be starting to help alex and lynette move to sawston. i've made a pot of chilli and a chocolate cake so we've got supplies! all being well ashleigh should be on her way home from afghanistan on friday as well so we may get to see her in a few days. a busy weekend ahead.
