Hello. How are you? Good? Yes, me too. A bit of a stiff neck, I must have slept funny, but nothing to complain about.
I have the day off work today. Hooray! So I've been out and about this morning down at our little market. Eight stalls outside lining the main street and three in the Market Hall. I know, it's all hustle and bustle here isn't it? Two of them were selling slippers and one, walking sticks, not exactly everyday necessities but we do have a rather good veg stall and a little van selling fish. In the summer there are far more stalls of course. Now though, in the middle of winter we are happy with the few stalls we have, especially when the weather is bad and you think of how far they've had to travel to get to us.
The photos are of my latest project.
This is a long over due project.
It was started probably well over a year ago.
It was this months 'Friends Challenge' set by Lesley that made me forage in the loft to retrieve it.
There has been much placing and pinning.
Lots of sewing.
Some embroidery.
And the odd swear word.
And in my best Australian accent, "Can you tell what it is yet?"
