Rainy Sunday, Sunny Monday


Let's face it - Bank Holiday weekend was a bit of a let down weather wise. Sunday was so wet I don't think I even set foot outside. Instead I made a quilt!


This is made from fair trade fabric that I bought at the Festival of Quilts last year with some plain blue added. I intend hand quilting it with a variety of threads.



Monday looked brighter, although it was freezing, so we set out for Nymans gardens near East Grinstead, which is owned by the National Trust. Gorgeous rhododendrons and lots of bluebells made it a colourful experience.


We went looking for lunch and found another, possibly even lovelier, garden almost next door!
High Beeches is a privately owned hillside garden with lovely trees and streams and lots of colour at this time of year.


Whatever you're doing this weekend hope it goes well!
