MY NEW BAG AND A SHORT BREAK


 This is my latest bag it is from the SOME KIND OF WONDERFUL book from Anni Downs. I am doing a project a month on a Stitch-a-long organised by Chookyblue and I am really enjoying it.


DH and I have just spent a few days at Port Willunga on the Fleurieu Peninsular in good old South Australia. We took the dog Andy, who is having a snooze here and our van and enjoyed some rest and relaxation. Long walks on the beach and exploring the local towns. Here I am putting the final stitches of the embroidery onto the bag in the photo above and I finished it this afternoon at home. The weather was unseasonably warm for this time of the year so it was lovely to spend time at the seaside. I was even propositioned by a lovely local lady to go skinny dipping (or should that be chunky dunkin as I am not a slim Jane at all), because I did not have my swimming suit, I kindly declined as it was too cold and windy. Had a lovely drive to Victor Harbor on Friday to pick Chloe and Hayley my 4 year old Grandaughters up from kindy and spend the afternoon with them, after dinner back to the beach, then back home on Saturday as we had other commitments to tend to.
Bye for now Jude
