Best Friends Forever

Tonight I joined up with some of the ladies on the BFF Facebook group and stitched more of my BFF instalment one. 



This week I finished the teapot and satin stitch flower.  


At this rate I might finish in two years time. At this stage my Tuesday night is dedicated to BFF.  

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.
