I was 'framed' ...

My attempts to make a purse with a little frame have been rubbish.
I've read all the tutorials and made the pattern but I can't get the fiddly bits right.

Hey ho.

Had a bonus morning off work (for good behaviour)
and at lunchtime I met up with two former work colleagues, one of whom I hadn't seen since she moved to the other end of the earth (well, Bradford)
18 years ago.

A lot of catching up to do.
Mainly ailments and bereavements!
Well she always did enjoy the BDMs in the newspaper.

Jolly time.
