Things don't always go to plan!

Very little sewing was carried out whilst my husband was away and nothing creative happened at all. I made the items above as my son's daughter and her mother have a craft stall this Saturday to help raise money for Breast Cancer. I have also started to plan a quilt to make that can be raffled to raise some more money. I have a box full of pink fabric and thought I would put it to good use.

I have been busy socialising over the weekend, several meals out with my daughter and catching up with some girlfriends I haven't seen in a while. I also read a novel, something very rare for me.

My husband came home last night and I have managed to wash and dry all of his clothes ready for ironing tonight. We are going skiing on Friday for a week to Mayrhofen in Austria. We will need to pack our bags tonight, as tomorrow I have tickets to go and see a Beatles tribute band at the O2 ( a treat for my husband). We will be leaving straight from school on Friday and driving through the night, with a stop over in Germany. Let's hope the sunshine continues so that I can sunbathe as well as ski. Our hotel also has a fantastic spa so I can relax too! My daughter informs me that the sauna is strictly nude, so i won't be going there, Howard can make his own mind up!

I have another novel to read on holiday and have some hand sewing (just in case, we can't ski) ready to slip into my case. Lots of new albums are loaded onto my iPod, euros purchased. Almost ready to go!
