Walk II

I've kept on walking across the fields recently - in spite of the scorching weather.  And I've noticed how much it's changed since I started work on Walk I.  I've made good progress with this piece and I promise to show you the sketchbook development very soon.

But in the meantime here are some photos from my walk this evening.

I hope you're are all coping with the heat.

Walk

Hi all,

Hope you're well and enjoying yet another sunny weekend.

This morning I decided to go for a walk and look for patterns and lines in the countryside around me.

Here is what I found:

 

 

  

  

Lets see how I can develop these into a design.

Another walk

 Hello all.

Thought you might like to see where I went for a walk with DH on Sunday. Very nice. 

Although it was overcast the whole time I still managed to end up rather pink, well red to be honest. Will I never learn.

And here is some lace and thread that I've tea dyed.  I'll show you what I do with it later.

I've also made really good progress with my altered book project. I can't wait to show you all - but it's hush hush until the end of the project.

Take care all and hope to hear from you soon.

Out and about

Hello all.

Hope you're well and that your gardens are appreciating the rain - mine has perked up no end.

I had a great class yesterday with Linda Miller - what a lovely lady. And I hope to be able to show you the items I'll complete over the next few weeks.

And I've also been walking a few times recently and thought you might like to see the photos I took en route.

And in a few weeks time its the Embroiderers Guild Day in Lutterworth - 21st May 2011. It would be great if you could come along - sounds like it'll be a great day.

See you all soon.

I know it's the Festival of Quilts but...

I had a few days away earlier this week. DH thought it would be nice to share with me his experience of walking the North Yorkshire Three Peaks - so we walked Ingleborough. Unlike him I managed to keep all my toes nails and could manage to walk up the stairs a few days later with ease. LOL.

And yes this photo is from the top - in August - I know it should be sunny - but as you can see it was a little overcast and a little windy.

And here I am at the trig point. I did have a hat on but it blew off once and I didn't have enough energy to run after it again.

I'm really proud of myself for getting up there as its the first 'proper' walk I've ever done.

Anyway - I'm off to FoQ again in a mo - so hopefully I'll bump into a few of you there.

Have a great weekend.
