Despite the beautiful weather we had a very respectable size group today.
The work flowed and was varied as always but I was very pleased to see the progress that has been made in the Hundertwasser project
Well done Alma on producing Hundertwasser's boat (picture on the right)
This will work brilliantly with Kay's Caravan amidst all the houses and trees
Sylvia is near to finishing and after a reluctant start has really enjoyed doing the work
Look at the wonderful detail in the shrubs/trees
Pat has completed her Hundertwasser house
If you look closely there is the 'compulsory' fabric used from a previous project
Elaine putting the finishing touches to her house

Janet L is nearing the end of her Hundertwasser house
Other project work continued in abundance including the ABC Travelling sketchbooks
Janet C: "E for Entomology" work in progress
Jude: "E for Embellisher"
This knitting by Joy is also for the ABC travel sketchbooks: "F for Fan" stitch (Fan and Feather Joy?)
Debbie's "All that Glisters"
The embroidered bunting is a joy
Debbie also worked on her Indigo hanging
Alma has a homemade way of making braids - it makes a lovely fine braid and is so simple to use

Pat worked on a cushion front using lovely fabrics and ribbon/braid

Pat W worked from a lovely pattern for a pincushion "The Birdhouse".
The tiny patchwork pieces, in tones of blue are beautiful
If I had any bunting with me today - I would have hung it!!
Joy has worked so hard and tirelessly on this wonderful fabric book
Hand made beads hold the leaf page
Beneath the leaves is another page with a pocket

This is the last page of the book with a Bluebird
The bluebird page is incomplete and everyone descended to offer their suggestions for its completion
Connect in Threads at their best - working together to help one another
This is the book cover - front and back
Well done Joy - the end is in sight
As a footnote, please remember that the August meeting is our Garden Party
It will be the second Thursday as usual - venue to be announced
Hope you can make it
