Summertime

Here again! and it is Summer! 
We are having the most fantastic summer this year, weeks of hot, sunny weather! 
And I have had a wonderful time so far :)

We started off with my Great-niece's confirmation. I made a quilt for her and she was very happy with it. And at last I can reveal the secret.



And then I had to make a new bag for a little holiday in Oxford, UK. I just love poppies. And it is big enough for my passport, tickets, purse, kindle etc.



I travelled to see my son's graduation at Balliol College. He has finished his Ex.MBA and I am so proud of him.


We had a great week together. Visiting colleges and museums, cream teas and of course the magnificent Blenheim Palace. I could have wandered around there for days, so much to see in the palace and the gardens.


Another shot from the Great Hall of Balliol College. 


I could bore you to tears with pics from Oxford, but I won't. Maybe I will share some more another time. 
At our last guild meeting we made owl pincushions and I had the pleasure of showing how to make them. These two are mine, 

When it is hot or when I am traveling, I like to have some light work nearby. So I have some new washcloths. 

I hope you are having fun days whether it is hot or cool wherever you are. 

Been busy

It’s that time of year ! I have been quite busy and still have more to get done - will have to see how far I get.  I enjoy making a few C...
