Yesterday saw me admiring the views of the Swiss Alps, today sees me in the midst of the French Alls.
It’s so very good to be back!

Pinching myself because I can‘t believe this is actually happening.
Leaving the country and heading off for a long weekend of quilting fun at Patchwork in the Peaks.

i get to enjoy a Swiss Alpine view from the Emmental this afternoon as we visit my husband‘s parents. The sun is shining so we are all sitting outside, enjoying the time together and I’ve got some secret sewing to work on too.

Another blanket and another view.
This blanket lives up in the mountains and I slowly work on it in when I come up here for a break.
It’s not been out all summer but now that we are heading into autumn I feel it’s time to start adding to it again.

I’m enjoying a lazy start to the day although I will admit it is not really by choice. I injured my foot somehow on Thursday so a day or two of almost complete rest were called for.
It’s thankfully almost back to normal now but I’m still easing very slowly into the day.

It’s a damp and grey morning and it seems that summer is finally on the way out and making way for the arrival of autumn next week.
When the cooler weather arrives I know I’ll be pulling the knitting out again so I’m using this morning’s working from home coffee break to sort through my needles and get them back into order in my knitting needle rolls.
I got these two gorgeous rolls in swaps back in 2015/2015 and they have been much loved and used since then. Each year they slowly empty over the colder months as needles make their way into crafting bags with assorted projects, and then as the season begins again I reorganise them all ready to slowly empty once more.

I’ve been doing some pattern testing for Alyce @blossomheartquilts and using up some glow in the dark fabric scraps I had left over from making quilts for the boys a couple of years back.
Isn’t this little lollipop just the spookiest, I mean cutest 😁
He was fun to make and I’ve plenty more glow in the dark scraps left to use up so he might just get some friends to hang out with over the coming weeks.

I need to do a little pattern testing and Halloween sewing and I’d be lying if I said my fabric choices weren’t influenced by the thread that’s already in my machine 😂

At least the post know better and made sure my little parcel of fabric was safely delivered 😁
