Summer In England....

Summer in England has derailed my sewing and my blogging. It is too nice to spend time with Son and Daughter -In -Law Mum Dad, Sister,  Brother, Nephews and Nieces, Garden and Cats not to mention the old sewing machines.



Lunch should always be at a good garden Centre or Nursery! Can you see how they planted the lettuce?


Time to check on my vintage machines, yes they look good and are sewing well. It is amazing and aren't they cute?







Making petticoats for bridesmaids on the Singer 404 (not my machine...it belongs to ADIL now! (Adorable Daughter In Law)



I did have some time for Patchwork. The wonderful and unique Helen Howes ran a class in Wickham Market which I was lucky enough to be able to attend. She is an excellent teacher. Unfortunately the Wickham Market Store has relocated to Colchester. Helen is going to be at the River Rat TOGA this weekend but I will be at the Cranky Retreat in Lone Oak.





Every Tuesday and Saturday there is a market in  Framingham.  Jayne of Magpie and Me is a fibre artist and produces the loveliest weaving and felting.  On Tuesdays she takes a stall at the market.
She also creates beautiful hand dyed wool. Hmmm who do I know who knits and has a birthday?
