I had a lovely break, we were away in Menorca for 11 days of the past 14, and only had a sporadic internet connection for 24hrs, and as that was so rubbish, I couldn't be bothered to drag myself from the sun lounger to keep trying.
I have missed you all, don't get me wrong; however it has been so relaxing and liberating not to be tied to my MacBook/iPad/iPhone.
I read a couple of amazing books, The Girl Who Saved The King Of Sweden and I Am Pilgrim, did practically no sewing as it was either too hot or too dark, and took it as easy as I possibly could! I really wish we were still there, I can feel my blood pressure rising and suntan fading already. I am not even going to mention the pile of ironing I have inadvertently created!
So linking up with Fresh Sewing Day is a little bit of a lightweight affair this month…

I also trialled and wrote up another commission, the real-deal will be made in the next week, but you will have to wait until Christmastime for that, which isn't long, seeing as the festive goodies are already hitting the shops!!
So looking out the window today pretty much confirmed that Summer is gone from these here shores, dammit, so back to reality we go.
Oh you missed my chirpy, positive outlook I'm sure xxx
Non-ironing clothes are the way to go ;o)
