It's been a busy weekend here- I managed to get some things made for my table at this show on Saturday, including some new needlebooks and a collection of pencil cases made from brightly coloured linen. 

The house was filled up with children for a good part of the weekend- running around and playing games and consuming lots of crackers and mandarins. Some friends of ours with young children live next door and it was so great to see the kids running from house to house and playing in the park altogether. We even had a visit from their sweet dog, Chevy, who we've loved for a long time. The girls placed him on the sofa and wrapped him in quilts and blankets. He was very patient.

    I love that stack of needlecases, it must be a bit sad to see them go! How cute is that dog and he must be so patient too.
