Been away

We have just come back from a week away at the Caravan at the Coast, my MIL has bought herself another caravan so we had to unpack everything first, when we were making the bed up and the fitted sheets wouldn't fit we realised it was a King sized bed who would have thought in a Caravan. So that was a shopping trip for some new bedding.I had plenty of time for stitching,
I managed to finish off LHN Peace on Earth and I finished the next one but just need to put the beads on.
I also attended a Bead Workshop at Robinhoods Bay with Jenny, from the picture we have stitched a pendent in delica's, crystals and size15's and I am now making the rest of the necklace it is a 5 bead tube (delica's) in brick stitch I have stitched about 8 inch so far about another 7 inch to go, I want to try and get it finished by the next class in 2 weeks time.
This is Penny she sat on the window ledge in the new Caravan watching for people to bark at!!!
