I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

We are the Textile Treasures

A happy bunch today meeting our friends from the Scottish equivalent - the Rural Women's Institute who've helped us with our exhibition. The show was fairly quiet at times but became a little busier in the middle of the day and, as usual, everyone was overwhelmingly complimentary about the exhibits. It's so rare to see "everyday" needlework of such quality at shows such as these and it's clear that there is a great deal of interest in it all.

The Scots ladies are so friendly and welcoming and it's fun chatting to many of them. The temperature stayed comfortably warm for most of the day until late afternoon when we were getting tired and it got rather chilly. We'll take another layer tomorrow "in case".



Three days to go...

Very elegant looking stand Gill. Very elegant looking ladies in front of it too! Well done.
