Monday morning after a busy weekend so I am on a go slow! Chloe and I had a wonderful day at the Knitting and Stitching show and have come back with SO many new projects and very inspired to try lots of other new things. It was quite a trek to Alexandra Palace in London and involved walking up a steep hill when we couldn't find the free shuttle bus ( for anyone going it is on the other side of the station) It was a great mix of inspiring creations and stalls full of threads and wools. We met and chatted to some very interesting sewers and knitters and some very helpful ladies. I am really missing my phone so I don't have any wonderful photos to show you. It has also made me sort out my craft box where I put all my unfinished projects and I am determined that I will finish all those projects and my new ones before I go again next year! Autumn and Winter are just the time for new projects and warm, cosy evenings knitting and sewing. I have decided that I am a hand sewer and will leave the machine sewing to Chloe and Ed (both had sewing projects this weekend). 

On Friday we arranged our flowers in church for an Autumn/harvest themed display. They look lovely - photos are on my phone which hopefully I will be able to show you if they mend my phone. The colours of Autumn are so wonderful to work with and look especially beautiful with the sunlight streaming in through the windows. 

This week - coffee with friends, sorting with another friend, tutoring, hopefully sorting my blood pressure tablets, bible study and quite a lot of tidying after weekend.
