Almost July !

 Hi everyone ,

Well another month almost gone , I really think someone is spinning our world around to fast .

I have never known time go so fast .

It's still very hot here and no rain where we live apart from a sprinkle one night .

But we live in hope they say it will cool down this week coming .

It's hard work with the watering cans . 

The good part is getting the washing dry .

Well this week I have been working on another UFO and the stick 6in 2023.

So here is a few photos ,


Madame la Fee , I used some material from my stock and it's a blue /green colour 28ct


                                          A better picture of how it. will look ,


                                                   Below my Stick 6 for 2023  thank you Manuela and Martina

                                            I used a odd thread of black and dark grey I had given to me years ago .
                                    No name on the yarn , I have cut it out to make a needle case for a friend .
                                                                   So it is not finished yet , But gives you some idea.
 

More gifts 

                                   From our lovely friend Vickie a beautiful chart and card .
 

                        And from my friend Karen a wonderful  lot of gifts .



                                 Just had to show you this lovely gift from my dearest  friend Sally a beautiful china cup with matching spoon , it's  wonderful.


Thank you to all my friends from far and near you made my birthday very special .
                                                                   Love you all.  

And I will leave you with a couple of garden photos , Have a fun week .





                            Watering all the flowers is such hard work this year .

  1. Hello June,
    we will soon be halfway through 2023, and I too think time is just flying by.

  2. Eh già le giornate passano veramente troppo velocemente.
    Poi il sabato e la domenica che possiamo dedicare ai nostri hobbies, volano più veloci del vento.

    Complimenti per lo splendido ricamo, è un po' lungo ma finito sarà bellissimo.
    Non mollare 💪💪

  7. Your beautiful flowers don't seem to be hurting from lack of rain so you must be doing an A+ job on your watering, June! Yes, time is speeding by way too quickly. I so wish things would slow down. Beautiful stitching and pretty needlebook--that will make a perfect gift for a stitcher. Hope you get some rain very soon--enjoy your week ♥
