It was a Sew Wot Tuesday with a difference this week, Helen had arranged for us to meet at Fox's Cottage quilt shop. This is my favourite LQS and we are always warmly welcomed once we step through the door.
It was a nice sunny Autumn day
Believe it or not, there was not a single item for Show and Tell this week. But we made up for it by checking out the shop, and most of us purchased a few goodies. I had a very small list, I needed more pink thread to continue with my machine applique on my secret sewing project. And I was also looking for some poppy fabric for a border on a small Anzac wall hanging I'm planning. I didn't care for the several fabric choices with a black background, they looked much too dark for what I wanted. And then Helen produced a pretty poppy fabric on a lemon background. Seems this one had fallen behind all the others and was just recently discovered. That one will suit me nicely, I decided.
My poppy fabric purchase
The staff at Fox's Cottage love it when the Sew Wots come, as there is always plenty of goodies for them to eat as well. They sat down and joined us for morning tea.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dear friend, Jenny . You are in my thoughts and prayers. It sounds like you had a lovely day with the Sew Wots. The poppy fabric is so pretty.
My deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your dear friend. Sudden losses are so hard, as you well know. I’m glad you talked to recently and that you have wonderful memories of your lifelong friendship. Hugs! I know the pain of losing a dear friend.
Your Sew Wot gatherings are just my cup of tea! A great group of friends.

My condolences on losing your lifelong friend, Jenny...nice to see the memories captured in those photos of yours...
Your "teas" at your get togethers always look so wonderful...
hugs, Julierose
oh Jenny that is sad to lose your long time friend when you haven't even become accustomed to Robin not being with you. And both of you near 80 - I have no long time friends like that - you were lucky to have had that.
I am so sorry that you have lost a 'friend' a very dear friend at that--you do have some comfort there though knowing that you chatted with her just a couple days ago!!! Glad you had a lovely outing to a quilt shop--
hugs, di
Photos of you together over the years, those are treasures, a huge loss. My longest friend is from 1954. In Auckland, too far to drive now, for either of us, so a plane flight if we want to meet in person. And although Dunedin was a long way further south, you will miss her so much.
I'm so sorry to hear of your friend's unexpected passing, Jenny. I'm glad you have so many wonderful memories of her, though it's not the same as having her with you. Blessings to you.
I'm so sorry to hear of your friend's death. A friendship started in childhood and lasting through the various phases of life is amazing. I love the photos of the pair of you together. Send love and hugs to you Jenny.
So sorry to read about your friends passing. You will have lovely memories of a friendship that lasted from the time you were young, hold on to those.
God bless.
