Super little presents.

I spent a little while the other day making some little holders to put paper tissues in.

They are really and quick to make and make great little gifts. The instructions came from the Quilting Board, here is the link

A new cushion and a new experience!

There is a new cushion on the armchair now. It is the latest in my idea of having lots of cushions in all different techniques to add interest to a drab sofa. They are taking a long time to acquire!!

This was a pattern form the France Patchwork magazine which had about 30 of these made into a quilt.

The new experienmce was a trip out to sea from Roscoff on the motor sailing boat owned by our friends Rudolf & Karin. I was a bit scared I must admit but it was a beautiful day and we had a wonderful trip. I was allowed to take the rudder for a lot of the journey and, thanks to the sea sickness tablets I was fine. Here is a piccie of the boat and of Ron with Rudolf at the helm!

It was a shame we didn't do any fishing but there's always another day.
