Happy Wednesday everyone!If it rains I will be sewing, if the sun shines I am going up onto the hills to pick billberries.
So, here is my table today.The little lavender shrug was finished yesterday and is now in our blog shop gifts section.They have proved very popular so I thought I would pop one in the shop.
Beside the shrug is a lovely piece of lavender babycord fabric which I am going to use for a little pinafore dress. I took a pattern from one Wipso bought, as it was such a simple design. You can see my funny little sketch.
Below are just a few of the photos that I took at Shrewsbury Flower Show on Friday. It poured with rain all day but that didn't stop us enjoying the wonderful displays of plants and flowers in the big tents.
Righto....
Sewing it is then, as big black clouds have descended on us.
Blog update:
I never got to sew or pick billberries as Wipso and I ended up in hospital with her neighbour!! Long story but we spent the afternoon keeping her company whilst she waited for assessment.
Oh well, tomorrow is another day!!

Hopefully, I will have time to visit lots more WOYWWers today - you are such a lovely bunch - I do enjoy my Wednesday snoop! If you want to join in, then nip over to Julia's blog and check out the 130+ blogggers who share their workdesk every week.
Look forward to seeing the developments of the little dress :-) No rain here so you can always pop down here if you need to top up your tan :-)

Oh blueberry picking, think that would be a nice way to be spending your day. But hey, sewing isn't too bad either.

WOW those flowers are stunning, Thanks for sharing with us. THe shrug is such a pretty colour too, Love Hazelxoxo
ReplyDeleteLovely tidy desk Jo!
ReplyDeleteI hope the clouds clear so you can get out and go fruit picking too!
The baby cord fabric is gorgeous but it's all of the 'fluff' that comes off a piled fabric that makes me cringe! I end up still finding it for weeks afterwards! lol! yeah I know, I need a NEW dyson maybe! lol!
Hope you have a FAB day Jo!

we had awful black clouds all morning, then at 3pm torrential downour, really rattled the windows. But now it is drying up, and the sky is bright blue with fluffy white cloads, shame it is too late to go anywhere.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been bilberry picking in years, last time was criky, must be 15 years or more ago.

ReplyDeletenot sure I have ever eaten them?

That shrug is so cute....love the colour
ReplyDeleteGorgeous little shrug, love the colour. Hope you got out bilberry picking....
ReplyDeleteOh that shrug is gorgeously cute. the weather has been like that here too, its a wardrobe logistics nightmare,sun one minute, rain the next, I've given up trying to work out if its going to be cold or hot as by lunch it'll be different again :D

the colour on that little shrug is so pretty . The pics of the flower show are fab it must have been amazing!

Oh you are a good friend and of course, fab sister...what would that lovely neighbour do without you. The billberries may not wait, but the pinny will - and I didn't think your sketch was funny...still so impressed that you don't need a pattern! And yep - both of you - come on over, but probably not to clean my stamps...they'll be OK, honest!
ReplyDeleteLove that little shrug. Aren't flower shows fantastic, I went to the Tatton RHS show in July and I thoroughly enjoyed it and spent loads on new plants for the garden, such a great day out. Hope your neighbour is feeling better soon. Have a good evening, Tracy Evans x
ReplyDeleteThat shrug is so cute!
ReplyDeleteHope the neighbour is ok :)
Hopefully you will get to your sewing tomorrow :)
*hugs* Heather x
Just love hand knits and pinafores for little ones. sadly at 7 my Daughter tells me she is 'too old for baby things'!
ReplyDeleteJust makes them look individual and innocent unlike current adult fashions which are what the shops sell
Thanks for sharing
Hugs Candace
Love the shrug and I just know the material will turn into something lovely too!
ReplyDeleteHope the neighbour is ok and you have managed to do more sewing! I have been doing some applique this week on a Mandy Shaw quilt I have started - very relaxing!

ReplyDeleteCute little shrug. Hope Wipso's neighbor is ok. Tell Wipso her website will not stay up for me, i pops on and away it goes no matter what I try, have someone's elses that does the same thing.
ReplyDeleteHello there Twiglet, lovely to meet you, ooh you are a busy lady, your little shrug is gorgeous:) I'm liking the pattern you've made, I can't sew for toffee so I am mightily impressed, Thank you for popping over and your lovely welcome at my place :D xx

Hi 2pm at the Theatre was the plan but they did say they might not be able to serve us coffee (fully booked tables)so it that's the case we culd use the small cafe by the side of the theatre?
ReplyDeleteAny good 2pm?
Hugs Suz x
Cya tomorrow then xx
ReplyDeleteThat shrug is adorable. Wish we had some of your rain. Sorry to read about the neighbor. Hope all turned out well. Of course, you know I wouldn't miss visiting for anything, but I contracted a computer virus. It's still not fixed, but I had to make sure I wasn't infecting anyone. Happy belated WOYWW.
ReplyDeleteLove the shrug, soo cute and can't wait to see the pinafore, all those lovely flowers too.
