Good morning all.
I hope you are all well. We had a little break last week, spending a few days in Pickering.
Consequently, my desk is empty so I am sharing just a few photos of our trip
We spent a day in Whitby - it was Folk week so we enjoyed watching the Morris dancers beside the Endeavour ship.
It was a gloomy day in Scarborough but we did go to Peashome Park to watch the manned model ships perform naval warfare
On our return journey, we stopped in York so that we could see the Immersive Van Gogh exhibition in St Mary's church. We sat in deck chairs and watched a wonderfully calm and inspirational visual show projected onto the church walls all around us. Imagine floor to ceiling Van Gogh art. It really was lovely. Then we went into an extra room where these pictures were displayed.
I should have been looking at a model rail exhibition but, as you know, I am easily distracted. 🤣
So that's me for this week
I hope I can get busy in my craft room this week as I have a few projects to get going on.

shame the weather was a little gloomy but some great pics and a good week by the looks of it - the Van Gogh sounds fabulous, I saw an ad for it on facebook. Happy WOYWW Helen #3

So glad you had a great week away in a beautiful part of the UK! I’m so glad the ship battles are still going on in Peasholm Park, they were going strong when we lived up there. The collage is amazing, must have been stunning in real life seeing all the details in close up. Looking forward to seeing Big Sis tomorrow!

Lovely trip thanks for sharing. Hugs Bj#5
Glad you had a lovely week away. Some of our most memorable holidays have been spent down in Yorkshire as it’s where my late father in law came from. Catriona

Sounds like a great week. I love Whitby and great idea to visit other places while you're out and about. Bit late today as I had to go out. Happy woyww with hugs Angela x9x
Sounds like a great trip away. Your big is looking different today, I miss seeing the rainbow on top. Happy WOYWW. Angela #11
Lovely photos, Jo. You were in a lovely area. I'd have loved to have seen the Van Gogh exhibition. Have a lovely week. Hugs, Ellie x #12
Love your photos, Jo. The van Gogh exhibition sounded great.
I was looking back over past posts and I think my blanket was fitted between other projects over 2 years so I’m not sure how long it took. I’ve nearly finished one strip today, and the pattern says to do 9 strips so if I did it non stop it could take 3 weeks. The joining of the strips is slow too.
Happy WOYWW

Sounds as though you had a good trip! The Van Gogh exhibition sounds fabulous.
I am very envious of the places you visited - some of my favourites, whatever the weather!
Happy WOYWW! Susan #6
