A couple of days ago I was thinking that I would like to do a hanging plate at the ceramic studio. I love the film The Wizard of Oz and in particular the song Over the Rainbow. Love the original version and the one by Eva Cassidy even more. So, A plate with a rainbow seemed the right way to go. I brought a plate home yesterday and drew a design on it last night. Today, after a visit to the Craft shop I went to the studio and spent a couple of hours on the plate.

I have fetched the plate home again and some blue glaze to do the lettering and add a few bluebirds! It has been a crafty day today. Yesterday evening I did the layering and quilting on the charm pack quilt, and this morning I trimmed the edges and cut bias strips which I will join together in a bit to add the binding to the quilt. A curvy edge to this one so it will be a bit tricky!

I did actually take my crochet blanket to the craft group this afternoon, I only bring it out occasionally so it is growing very slowly!

Looking forward to Death in Paradise but sad it is the last one this time around!
