Cathy at Studio 28

I really enjoyed going to the Gallery on Friday as a volunteer demonstrating the beading on my table runner and the felting that Liz was working on.....although it was very quite we sold some raffle tickets and had a look at all the beautiful work of the members of the CACA.......

On Saturday Sandra and I went to the official opening of the Gallery..... unfortunately we were  not allowed to take any photos.....but I did manage to get a quick snap of the felted scarf before I knew about not taking any photos.......

Mine is the pink and orange one......Barb's is the white one, it's so soft and delicate....Fay's is the blue one and Jo's is the dark one on the other end....

     
Though out the Gallery were booklets of the CACA and Artist statements.....so I had a little look and low and behold there was a photo of one of my pieces that I made a few months ago.....I didn't even know that Eileen had taken a photo of my work.......Eileen was the coordinator for the CACA with the Gallery and put the booklets together.......

Well we had a great afternoon playing ladies...there was finger food....wine and music.....
and a chance to catch up with friends and socialize...... 

The rest of the weekend was spent in the yard.....pulling out weeds and building up gardens......the front garden is looking good now....although I lost a few plant after soooo much rain......it has been nice to have a few sunny afternoons.....

....and after slogging it out in the yard I have been sewing a few blocks from the Circle Game by Jen Kingwell....

This is the center of the 4th block.....will post photos of other blocks later......have been cheating a bit with this block by doing a background piece instead of separate pieces....I'm really enjoying these blocks......yeah I know another project on the go.......

Hope everyone has a great week......

Happy Stitching -------Cathy
