It’s been a busy old week for me so this week’s Sunday Sevens is a little bit longer than usual and may have more than seven photos…
I hope you had a good week!
Oh hello there Mr Deep Blue Sky, how lovely to see you again!! What a gorgeous day Monday was, and what a gorgeous balcony – one of my favourites in Gibraltar.
Dressmaking class
I learned a valuable lesson this week at my sewing class… not to to run before I can walk. There I was merrily cutting out the fabric for my new dress… then when I pinned it together to begin sewing my seams… shock… horror: two sections were 4cm too short! I’d misdrawn my pattern pieces last week -eek!
I had to add an extra bit to the bottoms of the two pieces and hopefully you won’t see the joins within the hem. Whoops!
Another beautiful sunset
Tuesday evening brought us the most beautiful sunset…
It was too lovely for just one picture I thought …
Sunset inspired watercolour class
In my watercolour class this week our teacher got us to break out of our comfort zones and go abstract. Inspired by the lovely sunset this week I picked similar colours and slapped a bit of paint about. It was loads of fun and I ended up with some feathery bird like shapes. We’re going to add to them next week… I wonder what we’ll end up with!
Parsons Lodge
I ended up down by the sea at Camp Bay on two consecutive mornings, Thursday and Friday. The weather was beautiful, a bit cold but gloriously sunny on Thursday.
But on Friday… it was looking a bit grim! What a difference a day makes…
#freeheartfriday
Later on Friday I took a walk down Main Street and spotted these lovely hearts pinned to the trees. They were left for passers-by to take as part of the Free Heart Friday free art project.
What a fab thing to do – I hope they brought hope and joy to anyone who needed it.
Gib Talks
Yesterday Gib Talks returned for a day of short inspirational talks on a whole range of subjects. To find out more about it, have a look at my post from yesterday.
On my hook this week
This little chap was on my crochet hook this week. The little amigurumi zebra has gone to his new home so I can share this. I hope his new owner will like him 😊
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you have a great week ahead.
