So great to catch up on your blog. The beach hut fabric picture is stunning. I love it! The colours are so beautiful and the colour in the frame picks up the lovely colour in the picture.

Got to Barton and the road was gridlocked, turned round and came back home and watched it on the live yooootooob feed. <br /><br />I will get the bus over one night this week to see the coloured buildings, they are on till Saturday, 4pm to 7pm. I think.

I liked art at school but wasn't very good at it. I liked needlework lessons, made my own clothes, but that's about it. Only started this when I retired at 60.

Love it. You are very creative. Due to a big drop in income I have had to make serious adjustments to spending over the past four years and I think I have finally got real control so looking forward to 2017 as my best budget-year yet. Your blog inspires me. Thank you. Hoping the next year brings you happiness and some unexpected treats!

I'll be taking my camera tomorrow as I'm not sure how long the colour will last for. Here is a link for a short video, which you don't have to watch, but there is a map underneath with info. It says if you are in Lincs then Barton has a cafe at the Waters Edge Visitor Centre. I don't know yet whether our tickets are for zone A or B but just happy to get 2 of them.<br /><br />http://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/hull-city-of-culture-fireworks-and-made-in-hull-everything-you-need-to-know/story-30021950-detail/story.htmlLesley Gilberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12391675183992422658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-48893473153108463322016-12-31T17:12:17.732+00:002016-12-31T17:12:17.732+00:00I love it.

I pulled the fabric tightly over the cardboard lacing it with thick cotton. Then I stitched all around the edges to flatten them, sticking the needle through the cardboard and stretching it a bit more to ease out the bumps.

The dedicated page only published a couple of hundred comments then stopped, even though I was able to see them they didn't get published. If we keep it to the blog posts only they will all get published. <br /><br />It's up to you on how often you want to check in. The 1st of the month will be the Walking Group record, you can chat with each other about your achievements. There will be 13 posts dedicated to walking, the last one on January 1st 2018 will have all the totals.

I might do that. Don't want to come over your side and get stuck in traffic. <br /><br />I might come over on the bus one night to see the buildings lit up in the centre. It's on for a week I believe.

It's been quite cold and I've missed walking. Not sure how next week will be as it's to be 30s during daytime and into the teens for lows. I took some of my favorite plants into the garage in hopes they will survive. I've been known to cover outdoor plants with plastic when it's so cold like that.

I always like to see your sewing and how you make those ideas in your head come to life. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with next year.<br />We got a phone call today to say we can have 2 tickets to see the fire works display at 8.15pm on Sunday night - something I expect you will be able to see from your side of the Humber.
