WOYWW

 Another week another Wednesday.

My desk is still empty.

We had a few days away in Derbyshire, with old school friends, last week.

We visited NT Keddleston Hall and enjoyed seeing their array of peonies in the garden.







We also visited Matlock, Crompton Mill and Bakewell. I didn't take any photos which is not like me. However, we really enjoyed the company, food and trips out .

So. my only crafty activity has been knitting these little friendship hearts. 


I have a friend's wedding to go to this week so that will be fun.

Have a good week all

Gorgeous Peonies Jo....it's a shame the flowers don't last longer. The rain took ours very quickly this year sadly.
Hugs,

Stunning peonies, Jo, we don't see them here, it's too warm for them. I'm back ... last WOYWW post was Feb. That's a big gap. Better late than never. Happy WOYWW.
Thanks for sharing, and may God bless you and keep you and all whom you love safe and well for 2024!
Prayer hugs, Shaz in Oz.x

The peonies are gorgeous. Mine didn’t flower this year ☹️ I used to love going to Bakewell on a Monday for the market.
Take care and happy WOYWW

Enjoy the wedding. Are the hearts for that day?
So glad you had a nice few days away with friends. Funny but those peonies in the first photo are identical to some we saw at Sizergh the other week. I fell in love with them, hadn't seen the spiky centred ones before but I love peonies anyway.
Take care, Hugs, Neet 4 xx

What beautiful peonies! I replanted my mums in my garden when their house was sold and due to the change of soil, they have gone from white to pink. Adorable knitted friendship hearts, what a lovely idea.happy woyww! Michelle #14

Gorgeous Peonies, they are some of my most favourite flowers. We're hoping to visit Crompton Mill at the end of August as we're staying at a hotel in Matlock Baths. The hotel is the most amazing place as it's been kept as the Victorians would have known it. Loving your little hearts too. Sending you best wishes for a very happy woyww. Hugs Angela x11x

Those peonies are beautiful at Keddleston Hall. I'm glad you enjoyed visiting all those places in Derbyshire. Some of them have become favourites of ours too.
I love your little friendship hearts project, Jo. Hope the wedding went well. Congratulations to the bride and groom.
