Rosa's Sunhat!

Good Afternoon Blogging Friends, I hope the day has been good to and that you've managed to get done what you planned today.
It's turned out nice now, but most of the day has been a bit overcast, but no rain.
Not really getting much done in the way of card making, more really about finishing off knitting which has been lying around.  I think I've lost a bit of something, I have my new Little Claire Club stamps sitting on my table but, I just keep ignoring them, so maybe I should just have a wee break from the cards.

Thanks to everyone who visited me and left lovely comments on my last post, always appreciated.

For those of you lovely friends who have been following my blog and offering words of advice and comfort, just to let you know my letter arrived this morning, and there was no surprises, and it was very obvious that only one aspect of what the problem is was noted, so on Thursday I'm off to see CAB with my job description and letter and see if they can offer any advice.

I've been trying to get the packing organised, and buying the bits and pieces needed, don't really want to buy holiday essentials in Iceland as everything is so expensive.
I tried on my swimsuit last night and fell about laughing at the sight I looked, Alistair commented that not to worry as it will be so cold just to keep my fleece on top whilst I rush into the hot pool and no one will see. I have a super model's lower half, I wish, but the top half's bit much.

Our Choral Society had it's AGM last night and the feedback about our concert last month was fantastic, we had great reviews, so all the hard work was well worth it. What an expense to put it on though, just as well it was a sell out.   We always have a bit of a social afterwards with a bite to eat and our Accompianist always puts a musical quiz together which is great fun and we have a sign along, nothing high brow, just all sorts.  The evening really cheered me up and was just what I was needing.

So on to my offering for today, it's not a card, but a sunhat;

This was made for a friend's little girl from a pattern in a knitting magazine.
I've used Wendy Cotton Yarn, and although the camera hasn't picked it up too well, the colours are yellow, lilac, blue and a peachy pink.

I have to say Rosa looked a little picture in it.

I would like to enter this creation into;   http://sparklingblackrose-craftmylife.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/all-crafts-challenge-blog-hop-and.html
 I found this challenge blog through May's Blog http://mayshappydaze.blogspot.co.uk/
and was delighted to find somewhere that I could enter my knitting into.

Well that's me for now, we are having a friend round for his tea tonight as it's the astronomical evening and both he and Alistair are away to that, so that means I've got a bit of me time.
Have a good evening
