Hip! Hip! Hooray! It's Another Hope & Elvis Day! (The Sunday May 5th):


I was really excited on the second day of the machine embroidery weekend workshop to see everyone's creatures really come to life.


You can feel the sewing machines are ready and raring to go!




I had a little bit of time to have a wander around and take a little peek at the work from the day before...








Here's Louise taking some cake close-ups!


Thanks so much to my Mum and Jean from across the road for the completely gorgeous cakes.




My machine, all prepped and ready for the demo!











Everyone worked their socks off the whole day.
Those machines were whizzing!








Seriously talented ladies...





Magie cooked up another delicious dinner for us.












Shoe-envy!


Just look at the amazing embroideries that are being created!


Ruth looked after us the whole weekend, thank you chuck!


And here are the utterly gorgeous pieces that were created in just the space of two days!
(I do hope that I've photographed everyone's work-please let me know if I haven't).















I love how everyone personalised the techniques that we explored over the weekend, I thought that my heart would burst with pride!



Thank you lovely, lovely ladies for the best time ever!
And thanks so much to Louise, Ruth, Sam and Debs for all your hard work, laughs and shenanigans!
