Easy, Like Sunday Morning...

This morning we got up and went swimming; not just 'us girls' watching dear son having his lesson, but all the family.  We are determined to make the most of the last few days of the holidays all together! 

I then made the most of the sunshine and sat in the garden stitching the hexies and making a start on some more friendship bracelets.

Twin Two is happy with her replacement, and the others are now nagging for more; oh what have I started?!


I also managed to get the Liberty panel finished...


...now onto purse assembly; if I can remember how my sewing machine works!

Liberty progress...

Just to prove I have not been lost to the dark side, ie. become a complete couch potato with no crafty itches to scratch, I have finished basting one set of the mini-Liberty hexies.

They seem to have come up smaller than shown on Leila's tutorial, the sides are definitely 1/2", so I am not sure what I did there, but I have a cunning plan.


I also received some waxed cotton today, ordered the minute we got home...  


Twin Two, having lost her precious friendship bracelet on the journey home from Menorca, is in serious need of a replacement; so good old mummy needs to quickly re-acquaint herself with her 'time spent working in the South of France skills' pronto!

That's my Bank Holiday sorted!
