The next party.

 I’ve added a Halloween party to the party photo book I started with two older photos but with a new story.

...........................................................................................................................................................

 Madam Mee  owned  the Witches Hat Shop it was a shop with a difference, she did not sell her hats but rented them out, so each year her customers could have a different hat,

Poppy and her friends went to choose their hats for the coming Halloween party, I wonder which hat they will each choose.

And off they went to enjoy some Halloween fun.

There was Apple bobbing..........

Bobbing for Donuts.......

Pin the spider on the web.........

Cookies and Hot Chocolate before they went off to Trick and treat their friends.

and now to plan the last party.

A Finish

 Fiona has finished the first of the etui she is making, this has been such a happy project for our Wednesday stitching mornings and she had it on the show and tell table at guild this month. 

My etui is being sadly neglected but I will have more doll photos to share soon. 

The Tea Party

 The second party for my Party book has now been completed… a Tea Party. Rosie invited her friends to a tea party and told them it would  have a pink them, she planned to wear her favourite dress.

And they came wearing pink dresses

 

There were pink Teacup party hats for everyone 

And party games included Tic tac toe which Poppy won the most games.

And everyone enjoyed the afternoon tea with a special cake for the occasion that Rosie had prepared

And she had goodie bags and balloons to thank her guests for coming.

Everyone enjoyed the tea party.

A little stitching

 Fiona, Diane and I stitch together on Wednesday mornings, we are currently working on etui the ones Fiona and I are stitching are for our granddaughters  while Diane plans hers as a gift to a friend. We are using the layout of the Robin etui I stitched some years 

My “Robin from the secret garden”  etui.

Fiona has three granddaughters, and is planning to stitch an etui for each of them here is the progress on her first two.

The theme for this one is  Strawberries  and the next one is ladybirds. Her third one is just started so will share it later.

Diane has a cat theme for her etui

I will share mine one when I do the next update as I have yet to get photos. 

Something different

 Jan has asked me to do a photo story book for Ronan’s birthday, we decided to make it the story of some bears who live in a tree house in the forest, she was able to bring plenty of items  for props.

Yesterday I completed a story about the bears going to the beach which will form one chapter in the book.

Setting out car, caravan and boat, off to the beach where Father Bear and Benny Bear will go fishing.

 

I’m pleased how this set of photos for the story worked out
