Yep, spent much of this Queen's Birthday weekend at Sewjourn.
I sewed three long-sleeved T-shirts.
No, you don't get pictures of my sewing, you get pictures from my morning walks. That plastic bag on the fence annoys me.
I sewed two-and-three-quarter pairs of trousers (didn't finish the third pair).
I finished sewing a dress which was bloody aweful. Potato woman extraordinaire.
We ate wonderful food. Delicious winter food: slow-cooked lamb, Portugese chicken, lemon tart, sticky date pudding, it was immensely satisfying.
I got to hang out with wonderful women, really interesting and talented women.
I got to see my favourite eldest daughter, her really nice boyfriend and some of her other friends (the lass lives "on my way home").
Maybe I'll post the tops and pants, maybe not. It was satisfying to get some winter clothes made, but the company - the women - was the best thing.
You should post the pants, they were fantastic. I'm still thinking about them, they were so good. Lovely to meet you and thank you for helping me too!

Oh my LORD that first photo is incredible. That's what I miss when I sleep in, I guess.
I second the vote for showing the pants!

Oh yeah, that first photo is incredible - the sunrise was excellent - I hope I have one of that morning too!!
It is great hanging out together isn't it!!! I'm so glad we all came.

Oh look at the commentbox - craft camp reprise! Awesome women indeed.
I took some shots of Kate in her jumper for her ravelry page and I kept saying that plastic bag on the fence annoys me.
I'm so glad we all were there. Here's to continuing until we're in our 70s.

I'm so glad to have met you. You have the BEST laugh! And hair.
I second Stomper's comment about the trousers. You should post them. Those stripes would have made me bananas. You're a brave, brave and talented woman. And brave.

Your first photo is amazing - and that plastic bag had been on the neighbours fence for about a year.......but I think I have to climb over and pull it off now!
