So a little story of the fabulous day I had yesterday when Annie and I picked up Astrid from the station on her visit to us. We all really got on from the minute we met and the day just got better and better. Annie was so organised and had everything all set up for a great crafty day, so after some tea & cakes we started to craft, exchanging lots of tips along the way. Astrid herself has a wonderful knowledge of craft and art and soon it was lunchtime. Annie had prepared a lovely lunch for us and again more chat throughout, I don't think our tongues stopped all day. We exchanged some gifts and Annie gave us both a super goody bag of things she bought whilst in Germany. The day went past much to quickly and before we knew it, we had to get Astrid to the station for her journey home. So thanks to both Annie and Astrid for a wonderful day and a new friendship has begun. I have a few pictures of our day and I'm sure you can see some more on the girls blogs too. I'm off to lunch to-day with my friend Jan, so no crafting till I get back at least. Hope you all have a wonderful day and that crafter's of the world unite. Hugs Rita xx

Hi Rita,
lovely photos of you all, and your day sounds just the best.
You can't beat crafting with other craft loving buddies. I always find the day slips by sooooo quickly when crafting.
Strongly recommended for anyone that is on their own and feeling lonely.
Have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
