Mending... making it fun!

Tuesday, 20th October, 2020

Hello!
I never used to do mending - but with lots of a sheet (used to make masks) left over, I thought I'd patch up Hubby's work trousers... the patches looked a bit bare, so then the fun began:

An inkpen and some acrylic paint.  So far they've been through the wash twice and still look ok!

A Car Picnic and some painting

Today is lovely!  

Caption:  just snapped this pic from our side window... beautiful, sunny day seen through our jungle of Nasturtiums

There was rain overnight - 5mm worth.  Great for the garden and now, this morning, the sun is shining and all's well. 

Hello! I hope this finds everyone well and happy and enjoying those ordinary, everday, things in life 😊💖 

Yesterday we went for a picnic, after a little walk (the breeze was cool but the walk felt good):

Then back to the car for lunch:

Simple, little things, but they mean a lot.  

As to painting.  Here's a little collage of some. 

I love this new abstracty kind of way to paint,  its something I stumbled on to just by playing around and experimenting, painting over old work etc.

Time for me to do some visiting of blogs now, so cheerio!
