Long Weekend

I had the most wonderful Australia Day weekend - flew up to Brisbane on Friday evening and stayed with Diann, who is the most entertaining friend anyone could have.  Bill the Builder was away working for the weekend so it was just us.  We had such a relaxing time - long lunch with a bunch of friends on Saturday

Helen, me, Sandi, Diann and Teresa - only photo taken all weekend.

and breakfast with Diann's daughter and her family on Sunday morning.  The rest of the time we just talked, hung out, talked, did a bit of stitching

talked, watched some of a BBC series, talked etc.  I had the best time.

I came home to a few roses blooming and there's quite a few buds on this side of the trellis - receives more morning sun than the other side.

My lunchtime stitching is progressing very slowly.

Block 4 - Best Friends Forever

So I started stitching another packet of the blocks while I was away and think I'll continue with these as my tv-watching stitching.  Might even head back into the sewing room tonight - "Goodnight Irene" is calling to me although I should finish off  Floral Bouquet 2.
