Sadly I didn't make it here:
Daughter was still too poorly (though improving now) and I was utterly exhausted. But it sounds like a brill time was had by all (going by all the foody pics on IG!) and I know there will be other opportunities in the future to meet up with my bee mates.
What I did get to do instead, was lots of sewing! With youngest daughter staying at a friend's house and poorly daughter tucked up in bed, I had a few hours of uninterrupted sewing!
A few pencil cases to put into my sister's shop. And also some make-up style pouches:
There was a little bit of recycling going on there, with the navy corduroy pouches. There are a few more make-up bags to come (sorry!) which are part-way finished.
I also got another wee commission project ticked off my list today, but I'll show you that another time!
So while I was missing sewing alongside my Brit Bee buddies this weekend (and not getting to see Uni daughter today) I still managed to get the sewing done which I would have brought away with me.
And now a storm is closing in, so it's time to batten down the hatches and snuggle up under a quilt!

Very pretty makes!
