Another relatively quiet day. Pottered this morning and got some odds and ends of material cut to shape to start doing some hand patchwork at the craft group this afternoon.
Darren and I went out before lunch, got a bit of shopping and then had a snack before he dropped me off at the craft shop. Five of us there this afternoon, often just two of us turn up, so that was nice. I started sewing the material onto the shapes and assembling them so it is taking shape already.
I called in at the studio before I came home as they had contacted me to say they had a one off ceramic spider with my name on it! I didn't take a picture, it is about the size of my hand and I will probably go in and paint it tomorrow. No real plans this evening although I am keen to try and make a quilted picture scene, have sorted some fabrics so may get them ironed at least this evening.

  1. I think your idea of a quiet day, and my idea of a quiet day differ considerably!
    Like the look of the hand patchwork already, and I'm sure it'll look even better when finished. The ceramic spider really had Jan all over it :-) I bet you've already decided on how you're going to paint it. It'll make an interesting ornament, but I would think it will be quite fragile with all those legs! People will have to look but not touch.
