Fashion and Embroidery Show - Harrogate

Sunday 9th October saw us in Harrogate. We took Sue and Sonny.

There was loads to see though not as much as in previous years. We met up with Ros and Linda for a cuppa which was good fun.

The costumes from the film The Aviator were on display.

There were lots of other interesting displays, including hooky mats which I remember making with my mother as a child -

Rough Patch!

I have always been very keen on Natural History, so I was delighted to come across an on line diary of West Yorkshire. http://www.wildyorkshire.co.uk/naturediary/

Richard Bell has put jottings, paintings and sketches of his Rough Patch into book form - it is certainly helping me through my rough patch.

Guess what everyone is getting for Christmas!!

Joanne and Ethan finishing tea.

This is my new Bernina Aurora 440., with the height adjustable table. Note the useful angle of the table. Ros found the table for me at an Office Supply Company! Where does your machine live?
