A long weekend away in the caravan is always good. We are currently staying in Hastings parked up in an apple orchard. Today I enjoyed a couple of hours sitting outside in the warm winter sunshine doing some stitching. It was very pleasant, out there on the fresh air, with the apple orchard just over the fence. I’ve been doing some secret stitching for a birthday gift, so I can’t show exactly what I’m up to.

And I’ve managed to make a few more of those little yo-yos. I need to make about 70 of these little ones, and the count is growing slowly.

The trees in the apple orchard are mostly bare. Most of the apples have long been gathered and sent away, but there are plenty of windfalls under the trees. Hastings is often called “The Fruit Bowl of New Zealand”. The weather has been beautiful while we have been up here in Hastings, let’s hope it stays fine when we head home tomorrow.
