This is a very nice tutorial on a sewing machine mat. Lots of examples and then the real goods, how to make one.
We voted today. It was in the afternoon and there were no lineups. I was happy to note that quite a few young people were at the voting booths. Have the times changed and are young people getting involved in the workings of their government? Whoever wins this election I am happy the young ones are involved. It is a good sign for democracy.
Pat picked me up this morning and we went to Surrey for our sewing group as the church was a voting poll. Joan has a large two story house. She showed the ladies her upstairs sewing room but I was not allowed to go up the stairs and for a good reason . The staircase was quite long and I am unstable on stairs. I would have loved to see her sewing atelier though. She is a very productive quilter and has been working on paper pieced Margaret Rolf's Australian Animals and her blocks are fabulous. It was so impressed I forgot to take photos. Have you noticed a pattern here? I keep forgetting to take pictures. Next week I'll ask Joan if I can take a picture of them.
Joan made a wonderful cake for dessert and served it with whipped cream.
I continued to work on my applique-hearts LOL. Pat was working on her beautiful yellow roses, Sharon was working on the houses she is making and I was not sure what everyone else was doing, except for The other Joan who was doing these adorable hearts with little lambs in the middle.
Sharon taking a photo of my end of the table and I took one ofher end of the table . Unfortunatley the light was bad, too much of it I am afraid.Outside the voting booths was another member of the community waiting his turn LOL.
Patiently waiting.
A good citizen, he is fabulous.Never even moved when we approached him.
When we got home from voting Richard called and we had a long conversation. He had a lovely time in Cuba.
Entrance to Hotel Nacional in Havana Cuba.
A form of transportation in Cuba. Notice no line up of cars.
A traditional view of Cuba, land of sun , sand and sharks LOL. Isn't it beautiful.
And then there is Peter who is visiting another paradise ....
Beauty in Hawaii, surf's up.
