I had a very long day; up before 6am to get the 7.23am train to London, Tube across town, then onwards to Banbury to be met by our lovely hostess.
There was non-stop laughter and chatter the whole time, with added fine dining and fabric thrown into the mix...
It was another super day with so many wonderful people...
Yes I am in the photo, and yes I did wear the ER Staple Dress xxx Photo c/o Susan. |
Sadly I had to leave relatively early in order to get all the connecting trains home again before I turned into a pumpkin, but I did manage a little hexie action on route though, and hopefully I will be able to show you the end result tomorrow.
I probably spent too much time in the sun today recovering, so I am zonked. I would love to have the energy to give a blow by blow account, but you honestly would be so jealous, it is probably best all round if I just shush now and get an early night!
Thanks for letting me come and play, it was lovely to meet you in person, you weren't half so scaru as i had anticipated! ;o)

ReplyDeletefriends, fabric, AND fab weather, weren't you a lucky girl!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pleasure to come fetch you from the station and spend the day with you. But Judith can't have your pouch because I want it! It really is the most perfect make.
ReplyDeleteAh what a brilliant day we all had again! We have the best Bee Boppers in the world!! Now, about your pouch...Jude and Susie just want that, I NEED it. You could just leave it to me in your will. K?
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a lovely day together.
ReplyDeleteEven with the condensed version, I am immensely jealous! Sounds like a great time!
ReplyDeletewhat a rabble - sorry I mean lovely gang.... :-) sounds like you had a blast . V jealous
ReplyDeleteIt looks marvellous!
ReplyDeleteYes you're right, I would be jealous. You are lucky to be friends with quilters of similar age and situation, who live close enough to meet. I've tried many groups and I've always been the youngest by about 25 years with small kids, and not retired and travelling Australia in my caravan. The other issue in Australia is distance, plenty of younger sewers but not necessarily close enough for a day trip.
ReplyDeletelike I said to the others, in my next life I want to come back as a Brit so I can be in this bee.
