I've managed to catch up with at least a months worth of ironing!!Was going to get the paints out with the kiddies but realised it's actually almost time to start tea!!(must start ironing straight as clothes are dry!)
The quilt looks great,D is really into Tinkerbell!

[Flummery]

Ironing. That's what I should be doing now - this is displacement activity!
Grandchild no 1 chose the fabrics - fairies and ballerinas. Granddaughter no 2 will no doubt turn out to be a tom-boy and lust after Thomas the tank Engline!

that quilt looks gorgeous, very clever flummery, i would treasure that if i was given it.

As for the raining - more decorating, though now i have stopped as my shoulders and back are hurting!!

Freeze the beans, make courgette soup, make more soup, find pickling recipes, check out jam jar stash, make more passata.....easy to fill!

Sow seeds, do woodwork in the garage [usually knocking up more seed or raised bed frames], listen to the radio or read.

Or sleep if I can get away with it.

Or cook if I'm peckish.

Or just open the back door and enjoy the rain cooling down the heat.

The quilt looks lovely, I've always fancied having a go myself - might get round to it one day

When its raining I usually have a big baking day or do some housework or sit on my laptop buying things for the veggi patch

well as i've been working my butt off outside in the sunshine for the last week, today i went to the corner shop, and bought tons of sweeties and choccie (i think i needed an artificial everything top up lol ) and i've sat here smoking fags, drinking tea, and munching all day and watching jeremy kyle

I took last week off work to spend with my son who`s 13. He spent most of last week fishing with friends down the canal. So I knitted a chunky cardigan in purple, lilac and pink.( it sound horrid but its quite nice).
I`m back work now and he`s still fishing everyday.

Today ive been pulling up carrots for my sister and friends in work and then did a bit of maintenance in the garden, and yes i did get wet but once im in my garden groove theres no stopping me, wind rain or shine!!!

The quilt's gorgeous Flum! Get all the pretty pink 'girlie' things in first to please grandchild no.1, by the time no.2 is old enough to say 'I don't like that' she'll be too big for them anyway!
When it's raining I usually have a look around the forum but this week I've been doing some decorating that I started last year in the bedroom!
