My birthday

Well its here I am 48 today, I thought I was 47 but I just worked it
 out and I am definitely  48 this year , like it really matters,,,,
I hope you enjoy the panel bag patterns I thought it would be good to use up random beads

I got the knit kit tool in aqua and my parents drove 380 km to have dinner with me. That was the best gift ever.

Sashiko


Sashiko is a Japanese Stitchery and lots of the girls at quilting have been stitching panels . I brought myself one to try it is only small but its a start. I will post it when I have it finished .

Wall hanging



My wall hanging ( Lorna's Flower garden ) on display at the exhibition. Lots of nice comments.

Mandarins anyone



My In laws mandarin tree is just covered with fruit this year. You can't do much with them either but eat them. I have never heard of persevered mandarin or juicing them yuck!.   They are nice right now to eat but I don't like them really ripe .

Knitting

I have finished the body of my jumper. Now all I have to do is pick up all the stitches around the front , around the bottom and the other front. I have to join the arms and the sides before I can pick up the stitches but I liked the look of it spread out.
