Melanie makes wonderful trips and shares her photos on her blog, it is like taking a tour!
This time she sent me some lovely souvenirs from her last “gallivating “(that’s how she calls it) and I am very happy with them! The FQ had a lovely scent, the whole parcel was perfumed. Thanks, dear friend!
On Saturday some ladies from my Quilt Group and I also made a little trip.
The weather was a bit grey and cold, but we had a nice time. We visited a small quilt shop and then we went to a lovely place to have a meal. They had strawberry cake and I couldn’t resist it!…Hmmm! A bag with quilt goodies + laughter + a piece of cake = happy ;-))
On the calendar it is clear : today is the begin of Summer!
The Clematis is blooming, it’s so beautiful:
The first yellow rose:
Yesterday I finished the wall hanging that I named “Waiting for the summer”. Now it is ready, just in time!
Hello, summer!
The machine quilting “runs” in one direction, like water or soft waves. This was the first time I’ve tried this motif, it was fun.
A little sneak peak from a bag that is nearly finished!
Wishing you a lovely and creative week!
And a delightful summer time!

I refer to myself as an armchair traveler when reading Melanie's blog. She's a sweetheart. Perfect quilting for your pretty quilt. LOVE the sneak peek...I think I recognize the fabric. :o)
Happy Summer Suzie! Yours has definitely started
Melanie's tours are great, no tired feet after long walks with her! Your fabric from her looks lovely. - I'm glad to hear the club excursion was a success and your efforts were not in vain. Your flowers are beautiful.
