Carol brought her husband, Pam was there with her partner Rob, mum spent the day with me (more about her in a minute). Neil and dad came in and a lady who is new to patchwork and quilting. Then as if that wasn't a full house Jeff our website designer arrived with his camera! Luckily he is a good sport and wasn't fazed by any of the goings on. So hopefully there will soon be some new photos on the website.
Anyway back to mum, she is making a quilt by hand, sewing together lots of hexagons. She wanted to lay it out on the tables to see how looked and if she had made enough and could start putting it together. Poor mum we worked out that she needs to make at least another 8 groups. It looks lovely though.
It has taken mum about 2 years to get this far, it has certainly been worth the effort though.

Pleased you are busy Angela - looking forward to visiting the shop. Your Mum's quilt looks lovely.
Hi Angela - I came over after reading about you on Gina's blog. Welcome to the Blogosphere! I'm sure you'll be glad you joined - there are some fabulous people out there in the world of the crafty blogger.
I love your mum's hexagons - so pretty.
Happy New Year to you and your loved ones.
Take care :-)
Oooh, welcome to blogsville- Gina has been doing some VERY good PR on your behalf! Your shop looks very lovely indeed-are you anywhere near Wisbech at all? couldn't realy tell from your map...
Best of luck with the blog and business and Happy New Year to you x
Thanks for your interest Garden Girl. We are 20 miles west of Wisbech - between the Cotswolds and Wisbech! If you are coming this way please call me (contact details on the website) - you will be very welcome!
If you can make it on Saturday 24th January - Gina will be with us for a special day of demonstrations (our sale will have started too!)
Welcome to Blogland - it can be a bit mind boggling can't it? I've only been a blogger since September and haven't sussed how to post photos yet, but had a digital camera for Christmas so hope to find out soon. My youngest daughter set everything up for me and posts my photos, but I must try to do it for myself. Love the doll Gina made for you - she is so clever - and your Mum's quilt as well as your friend's fabric picture of the view through the window. I will drop in again soon. Happy New Year, Heather.
OH my you have stole my second blog name! I love it. I though of "No recipes here" also! High five to you girl...I hate cooking too!

I must embarrass Angela by reporting that she has just cooked and served possibly the finest meal in the 12 years 3 months and 2 days since she asked me out. Roast Pork with all the trimmings and it was FABULOUS.
Cooking may not be her chosen hobby but she is darn good at it.....
