My Week.....

13th September 2015

I have had a good week and apart from a couple of days the weather has been beautiful.....

......more blackberry picking, jam and bread making this week, forgot to take a photo of the wheaten loaf and it disappeared very quickly!! Will share later in the week when I make another.

Lots of walking and some gardening in the park....

...still a lot of colour....





.....sunflowers planted by local children, sunflowers always make me smile....


.....busy bee.


All the usual household chores......

....a visit to The Knitting and Stitching Show in Manchester with friends....

....wasn't planning to buy, but couldn't resist...

...fabric for a sling bag for my trip....


....all this for just £3....


....just had to buy these printing blocks....


....recycled silk yarn and threads, LOVE the colours!


I have used some of these threads....

.....spread some on my felt...


....used my embellisher, 


....not sure which side to embroider!

.....spread the stripping on baking parchment, spray with water, place parchment on top and iron....


....repeat process until the paper is thick enough....


.....sprayed with water and sprinkled Brusho, turquoise and orange...
