FNWF - September (and life catch up)

The months do roll on by - a lot has happened recently  . ..

Sad news:
we had to farewell our cat (Joey) on 23rd June - he was 14.
and then on 4th August we had to farewell our dog (Levi) - he was 15.
😒😒😒😒😒😒

Wonderful Happy news
We welcomed our 3rd grandchild - second grandson on 15th August - exactly one year one month and one day after our second grandchild.
πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

and I managed to get to two retreats in August!
Not only extra sewing time - but time off work - always good for the soul.

For Friday Night With (cyber) friends - I did the usual bit of crochet while watching BH&G.


then escaped to Susan's Sewing Space and worked on this:


Its a bit of "secret Sewing" - but many of you will realise what it is for - but I am not saying or admitting anything.


Thanks Cheryll - glad you are back home & can sew along with us
& thanks for the push - else I'd be wasting time doing not much . . LOL


& Welcome Spring - though it/'s not very Spring-like at the moment

So glad we ended on a happy note. Your post started out so sad and I'm sure you miss their precious faces. Retreat + friends = wonderful! Glad you were able to make time for that and make some progress on your projects!
