This week I finished the teapot and satin stitch flower.
Sewing this block evoked a special memory.
When I lived in Balranald, Saturday mornings were dedicated to going down to the bakery for breakfast with my BFF. (We gave been friends for about 11 years!)
It was a great end of the week ritual. After breakfast we walked the street dropping in to shops that were open.
We would meet up again after lunch for sewing sessions.
Mmmmm haven't been back to Balranald since January and was hoping to get there this past weekend but unfortunately it didn't happen.
Need to go soon.
Sounds like a really fun FB group to be in. Love your pretty stitchery and it doesn't matter if it takes years to complete.
