Annies Birthday.

Hello Everyone.  Back to the rain here today.  But the weekend was beautiful and exciting.  My daughter Annie who most of you know through her crafting anyway, had her birthday last Friday, but did not arrive home from holiday till the early hours of Sunday morning. So we had arranged a day with our lovely friend Astrid a while back, so that was the first I saw Annie too.  We duly arrived at at Astrids lovely home and of course our friend from Shetland Jennie Atkinson who had also been on holiday too, met up with us also . After a fabulous lunch provided by Astrid we then set to do some crafting. She is always so organised too and an Eileen Hull  passport set out for us to create. What a fun time we had and after a raid of her stash it was nearly time to go to my younger daughter Carolyn for Dinner as she stays not to far from Astrid.   Here a few pictures of the Bag I made for Annie from Harris Tweed with leather handles, I lined it with some silk and mohair suiting I had from another project years ago and along with her card and a few pennies to spend her parcel was complete. The other picture was our fun day at Astrids and you can see the joy on our faces .  These kind of days are so Special and ones I'll always remember too.  Finishing off my little journal today and enjoying it immensely.  Hugs Rita xxx
