I had a couple of packages to send off so Tina dropped me off near town when she was heading out. I bought an old fashioned scrapbook in The Works as I thought I would stick my 70th birthday cards in it and keep them. I caught the bus home, as the ankle makes me disinclined to walk more than I have to. It went the long way round again so it stops at the Sealife Centre. Took a couple of pictures from the bus of the bay and the cliff at Scalby Mills.

I did a bit of washing and managed to get it dry on the line outside, so that was good. Apart from that I have been sorting materials and trying to match them up to make some more draw string bags.
The stiffening didn't go quite to plan when I made the first bag, so decided to attach slightly smaller pieces of stiffening to the inner circles before I assembled the bags.
So, I have now finished one and have six more cut out for another day.
The sky was attractive earlier, it has been a sun and cloud day.
England are playing now, and it looks like they will struggle to beat Iceland!!

  1. Buses are good. Easy on the legs, warm, wind free, usually, and best of all free!
    I love the bags, again I wish I had a use for one. You certainly do pick some nice patterns and colours to go together. It makes a world of difference to the finished article.
    That sky pic is lovely too, although I'd crop the top off to lose the top left corner. I know, I'm pernickety :-)
