PL - The month that was August

Here is my August project Life pages including...

...movie trip, broken toe, flat tyre & meeting Tilly...
... fabulous break in Bristol counting Shauns & watching balloons...
... meals with family, meals with friends...
...The Monopolys return from Japan, sleepover for 14!, AS results, BBQ time...
...Curry with friends, Birthday Girl, Stowe Gardens...
...Golden Wedding celebrations, practise expedition, movie night, BBQ fun...
... day at Dismaland, visit to Weston...
...Reading Festival, crochet course, uniform shopping, golf playing...
The eagle eyed of you may spot there is something missing from these pages... I still need to add an insert from the children's visit to Japan. I'm waiting for their input so I can use photos which are most memorable for them so it will appear here later on.
Thanks for looking.

Me on Monday

Here I am joining in with this lovely meme from Sian x
This was a lovely weekend of making & planning & ordering ready for a special day next weekend plus a cheeky lie in, tasty cake at a Macmillan fund raiser & a little hooky with Downton.
Today, the planning continues for what is going to be a fabulously crazy week of half term.
Hope you have a great week x
Sheena.

Big Birthdays

It's been on of those years for big birthdays of both friends & family. So I thought I'd share some of the cards & gifts I've made for them.
First up is this quilt I made for my friend Eileen's 50th.
I will say it took me 6 months to make in fits & starts but I'm really pleased with the result & hope it is keeping her warm & snuggly up in Scotland.
When it comes to making cards I always turn to my silhouette for help.
This is my Son's 18th card.
Friends 50th
Friends husbands 50th
Brothers 40th.
I know they are quite simple but I'm happy with that.
Thanks for looking.
