Party time...

The pictures tell the story...
Bathed in sunshine...
In wonderful surroundings...
With inspiration in abundance...
In the company of dear, talented friends...
We talked and sketched...
We talked...
We discussed...
Happy together...
Sewing...
Talking...
Listening to stories by the finest story teller Janet...
Sharing laughter...



Thank you for your wonderful hospitality Lillian and Bob. Thank you girls for your company, your hard work and continued enthusiasm for Connect in Threads
