Weekend Snippets

With the cold weather settling in, what could be nicer than a weekend of stitching with friends? Here’s a peek at what the friends were up to.

You can tell winter is here by all the knitting that’s taking place (and there’s another baby on the way!!)…

It was “black boots” day – three of the four of us had black boots on! And there were Mothers’ Day gifts to look at too…

Then on Saturday, Glenda had show and tell from a class she’d done, making this cute little macaron case, just the right size for her thimble, and the spoils of a trip to l’uccello (I must get back there soon…..!)

..and a delicious lunch of home made pumpkin soup, appetisingly adorned with cream and fennel…

I’ll show you what I got up to stitching wise in a day or so (just need to finish something).

After a week of rain, the sun shone brightly yesterday, making it a perfect day for a walk on a golf course. No, I haven’t lost my mind! B has been managing the Ladies Pennant Team at his golf club and yesterday was the grand final, so I decided I’d go and show support. It was played at a very prestigious Melbourne club and, in a tight fought match (one game went to 19 holes and one to 20!!) his girls won!! Jubilation (and relief!) all ’round. So the team moves up a Division, and have a flag for the first time in 19 years! And to top it all off, none of the male teams made a final! Go Girls!!

Hope you’ve had a lovely weekend.

Happy stitching
