Debutante Ball....

We seem to have such a hectic life at present, mainly keeping up with the commitments of our children. Last night we attended a "Debutante Ball", which is a traditional introduction of the ladies into society. Our eldest son partnered one of his high school friends and we were so proud of him, he looked very mature and handsome in his black suit. Above is a group photo of the fourteen debs and their partners. Royalty for a night!



And here's a sneak peak of my bag off to ??? I've visited my partners blog and tried to choose something I thought she would like, let's hope that I chose well.


I'd also like to thank all the lovely people calling by for a visit; its great to receive your comments.
Pop over and say hi to Helena at Syverkstan, she is having lots of giveaways as an opening to her new blog and sewing studio in Sweden. Another enjoyment of blogging - visiting other countries; seeing and sharing places that I otherwise would never have the opportunity to visit.

The way is clear...

I did it! I tidied up the last mess and even attended to a basket full of ironing. The way is clear for more sewing! I also finished sewing on the binding on our group quilt; and have finished all the blocks for the pink and white minkee quilt. Next on the agenda will be to sew the said minkee blocks together and to make a start on the bag for the bag swap.

If you would like to venture over to Lise's Hobbyblogg, she is one our blogging friends from afar who is having a giveaway for her 100th post.
