Apart from cooking and eating all weekend we choose some Theodora Cleave buttons by Barb Smith for this cushion...
I started this book by Jennifer Chiaverini, part of the Elm Creek series...
Spotted this camelia that had fallen to the ground...
indulged in this new chocolate by Lindt...
We cooked up some pears in maple syrup...
At the Summer sales I bought some Laura Ashley items...tea towel...pot holder...apron and a little apron for my GD...and this weekend I pulled them out and here we are...
We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves cooking and eating and had a blast of a weekend!!!Now we're off to a family wedding this weekend...

Love the bag you made and those lovely stitcheries!
Have fun with your cooking and sewing! It looks just fabulous!
So many goodies I don't know where to start...
I adore the matching aprons on you and your darling grand-baby, the tote is terrific and if you weren't so far away I'd have been hangin' around your backdoor for those pears.
We are the land of maple syrup and I must confess I find uses for it every chance I can.
Have a wonderful weekend D and just think of all the goodies you'll be able to put in that new bag.
