But im just abut back to fighting fit now. Which is good, as tomorrow I am taking the girls and a friend of theirs to London for the day. As usual it will be a day of food as per our usual London jaunts. Bring on the dim sum. And any other treats we so desire.
Meanwhile I finished a quilt top. I'll give you a sneaky peek, small and innocuous, and surely Love Patchwork & Quilting won't mind that.
I've been working with the Essex linens and am totally in love with them. Never before did I consider using them exclusively in a quilt top but I'd do it again. I'm rather looking forward to seeing how soft this quilt goes with washing as the linen is so tactile already. And, for once in my life, I actually have known how I want to quilt this almost from the get go. It may take me a while to accomplish but I think it will suit the pattern.
Hope everyone is enjoying the summer holidays if they are north of the equator, and that summer actually comes back. If it doesn't we are going to freeze our butts off in northern Scotland in a few weeks time!

Good to hear you're back on your feet. The weather is slightly depressing. Especially when there is no holiday on the horizon! Looking forward to seeing your quilt x

ReplyDeleteGlad to hear you're feeling better. We're in a hot spell over here and are in the midst of a drought. I hope they don't get to rationing...
ReplyDeleteSorry you have been poorly, and pleased you are better. Love those shades of linen. Something so calming about shades rather than multis.
