Hello ,
Went to Olympia on Sunday - Mother's Day to the sewing and craft show. Alot smaller than the Ally Pally in October.  Did one of the classes to make a broach . First work shop I did after going for the last 20 years  to Ally Pally. Enjoyed seeing all the quilts for the countries who are in the Olympics. The were all beautiful.

Hello,
Hope you are all enjoying the mild weather. These are wall hangings I made for care homes in East London.
They needed hanging for the residents to touch and talk about. They are machine and alot of hand embroidery. Along time to make. Well worth it as they looked beautiful when finished.

The 2 above are from one of the resident's paintings at the carehome.

This one I made up the picture for the home.

From another resident's painting.
