June is Bursting out all over !!

Phew ... what a Saturday. Spent most of the day under an umbrella in the garden =)

As well as enjoying the sun I was busy stitching the crab apples to the left. These are a test piece for a class at the next UKTWBB GTG. I was asked if I would do another stumpwork class.. So I thought "yey why not" ... but wanted to do something different from the dragonfly from last time.

I managed to complete it in one day but I am not sure that will happen on the day. Although the pink flower, one leaf and the crab apple should be done on the day, the white flower and other leaf are the same process !

Sad news is that the fish eggs did not make it but the parents are looking for another spot.

Friday DH & I had the day off. In the morning popped into Petersfield. First to give a statement to the police in regard to the credit card fraud as Nottinghamshire Police wish to make an arrest =) ... also to look in the library for books on Cubism. This is the next subject for my C&G course. Eeekk !!!

BUT 3pm we were off to Southampton to see BON JOVI ... What a great night. Nickleback were supporting and a local band kicked the eveing off around 5pm. The place was PACKED... the paper said 35,000 sold out. We were way back in the seats. Those on the pitch had the added extra of the stage walkway which came out into the crowd. Cool !!! No cameras allowed =( so no pictures to share ...

Now we are starting to think about packing for next Friday and our week away =)
