Eclectica Exhibition

This Weekend is the British Quilt & Stitch Village show at Uttoxeter Racecourse.   It opened yesterday and closes at 4pm tomorrow.  So plenty of time for you to visit!

I spent yesterday stewarding the Eclectica group's work.  Sarah and her husband did a great job of putting up the exhibition and all the work is fabulous.  Sadly my photos don't do it justice.







And finally my two Venice pieces.

Thanks for joining me today

Spring

This month's theme for the ladies photography group was Spring.  The weather has been really odd during these weeks - it's been hot, cold and everything in between.  However I have managed to get outside and take photos rather than use ones from the archive.  Hooray.










I hope you are enjoying the Spring weather.

Thanks for joining me today

A Day Out

Oh yes!  We had a day out.  We really haven't had many in the last 2 years.  We had been inivited to a get together for a friend's 40th birthday in Sheffield.  He and his family live in Munich so it was a great opportunity to catch up.

So we made a day of it.  Roger drove us to a pub in Derbyshire where we had an early lunch and then we visited Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet, an old industrial site which started in the early 1700s.  I have wanted to visit for years so this was great.

And as a bonus, there was lots and lots and lots of rust.




And then there were waterwheels and cogs.  Seventh heaven!







And even an old sewing machine

There were buildings too.  But I'll save those for another post.

Thanks for joining me today
