Pots of colour!

 Having a happy dance here..just finished this stunning design! Such a gloomy day here today, was actually not my plan to stay indoor but been really rainy i am not in the mood to go out...a pity as it has been so sunny lovely days last week during my work days and i was looking forward for my off day to go to the beach especially today being the longest day of the year, 21st of June...well, so glad i am done with one of my biggest piece on my list.

Stitched and finished a wedding card for an ex colleauge who got married early last week.

A get-together with my kids and bf kids with their partners last weekend. As everyone working and living here and there, also far out in the mainland , we had to make a schedule ahead of time.

                          Happy everyone came and had a lovely catch up over a bbq and drinks. We were still outside when it suddenly started raining and thunderstorm, was about after midnight so atleast we were done with the foods.

A pictures of my blooming flowers in pots which i had taken earlier last week.  

Hope everyone having a good start of the week. Thanks to all who takes the time to leave me a comment. I really appreciate it.

Chalk it up!

 Finally a finish! Chalk it up!!  Designed by Lucie Heaton and was featured at The World of Cross Stitching magazine, issued February 2021. My very first stitching on black. I can say it was quite challenging working on black and think i am not going to use this kind of colour though it looks great if i say so myself...this finish piece! 

Weather's been summery these days and restrictions open up a bit like eating in and out doors are allowed, Lots are coming to the island for vacation or to unwind... we then decided to get out of the island last weekend. 
The room we stayed looking unto the harbour, i just love it. I think and hope to go back there again next time as i love the place sorrounding it too...
....catching up with one of my colleagues over a drinks and a bites.
And lunch out with my daughter. I am out of insperations to prepare for foodies lately.
Hope everyone's having a lovely weekend.
