are you enjoying your weekend?


I hope you are managing to get some craft time this weekend. I have just finished this card although I really wanted to get it in this mornings post, never mind!
Last night we had the neighbours round for a few glass of red(or whiskey in their case lol)and a few games of domino's. I keep the 2 pences with the domino's so we always have change, but Mum hates to give it back at the end of the night lol, says she won it!!!
I want to have an hour with my quilt this afternoon, it is coming along quite well. I am up to the border now. I had a big todo yesterday, as when I was filling the spool, I did not notice the cotton was going underneath the winder instead of on the spool------- what a job I had trying to get the cotton from the inards of my machine!!!!! YES... I did swear..... but it was my own fault hehehehehe aanother learning curve.
I hope you don't make as many daft mistakes as I do! enjoy whatever you are doing.
