Enjoying Embroidery

 I've been enjoying the Olympics while stitching - especially now, as anything going on in the Velodrome is by far my favourite and I shall be barely moving from the living room for the next few days!

I have turned a couple of the embroideries into cards and my mini mobile desk is getting more untidy by the day!

Embroidered Needlecase and WOYWW

 It's been too hot to work up in my craft room this week, but it's been the perfect weather to sit and sew in a shady spot of the garden - so to be productive I've made myself a needlecase for my beading and tapestry needles!  

This happy mail arrived yesterday from Julia - what a gorgeous ATC and card and such a delight to receive - thank you so much Julia.

LAZY SUMMER DAYS

On one of the few sunny, summery days we've had lately, and let's face it there haven't been that many, I decided to flake out on the lawn with a good book, a jug of lemonade and an ice cream!  As I gathered together all I would need for the arduous task of relaxing, it all started to look rather appealing - so out came the camera!  I put to good use the daisies that hadn't been mown for weeks and made a daisy chain, although unlike my childhood days I needed a pin and pair of reading specs!

I am linking up to Color Me Weekly and Mosaic Monday.

Hope you are all having a wonderful summer!
