Lost mojo!

Okay it's been a while since my last post.... seem to have lost my blogging mojo!... not sure where it went... but it is coming back slowly....
Here's a quick rundown on what I did in March, Kate went to Thailand for a holiday and we minded her darling little Perri....

she is so sweet, very playful and entertaining and she wanted to be with you most of the time,  even on my sewing bench.....
quite different to our Pheobe who coudn't get far enough away from Perri... 

something to do with the generation gap I think...lol.....
Kate bought me these cute little bowls back from Thailand, they look good next to my birdie chopping board.....

          So no sewing finishes to speak of but...... I took my Mum and sister on a little holiday, just a few days away, less than an hour from home and we did all those lovely things you do when you get away....  ate delicious food ( out of course!), did a little bit of shopping,
I couldn't resist this sweet little jug... and Mum bought the pate knife as a souvenir & thank-you gift for me... it will be put to good use on the boat...
We caught up with a dear friend Mum & I have known for a long time over coffee, shared glasses of bubbly, watched movies, read, stitched and cut and stitched some more and chatted about everything... it was relaxing and we all enjoyed ourselves. Sandra went home with a quilt top together... she was very excited.... Mum worked on her current cross-stitch & applique and I finally finished some very dark & tricky back stitch on my Birch Point cross-stitch, 
I worked on a couple of other projects as well but no pics.... 
Mum and Sandra are already planning what they want take for next year...  :)
