Beach again

It was a lovely weekend down the beach - the weather was glorious on Saturday and a bit cloudy on Sunday, which was good for going for a run! Too hot on Saturday, but perfect for a very long walk along the beach. The sky was blue, the sea was green, the light was golden and there was hardly a single person there. All perfect!



I did the usual mix of sewing, reading, eating, strolling about and general bludging, then came home on Sunday to go out for dinner for my husband's birthday. We went to a bavarian restaurant for schnitzel and pork-based products. I didn't like it but the others did, and the beer was very good :) No, number two has not had any beer, he just finds his own jokes very funny.



This post is really for the gratuitous beach shots. I forgot to mention, last weekend I went to the Canberra Quilt Show and the associated craft fair. It was OK - there didn't seem to be nearly as many quilts there as usual. Maybe they had just spread them out more, but it looked a bit thin. There were way less stalls and vendors too. Maybe the age of the big craft fair is coming to an end, with the internet and all.



Some of the quilts were lovely, as ever, but way too arty and ornate to be inspirational. I am just sewing down the binding on that pink and yellow medallion and then I'll take a photo. It's quick and cheerful, definitely not show-worthy!
