Having enough light by which to stitch is always a problem when I travel and I found the best spot to sew was on the bed with the lamp on the wall behind me providing the best light in the room.
Back home I had popped a bag of long hexies cut from Christmas fabrics into my luggage and that's what I worked on first tonight...
After perching on the bed for a while, I decided that I would cut out some papers to go with the hexagons that I bought from the Liberty store on Wednesday...
I found some photocopied sheets in my handbag that I had forgotten to get rid of after my recent trip away for Let's Get Stitched...how fortunate; they were perfect to trace off paper hexies.
So not a lot done tonight but after walking what seemed like miles today, I guess I'm a bit tired...but we covered a lot of territory and had lots of fun.

I love how you can still find time to stitch after all that activity. It definitely must be such a relaxing thing to do. Glad you found those pretty pieces (I know nothing about quilting, except that its beautiful). Have a restful sleep :D)
Hexies are such a nice thing to travel with - I wonder what you are making with the Christmas ones? xx
Maria I have just enjoyed seeing all the sights with you. Even though you are sew far away it is nice you can still stitch along with us.. love the hexies in Liberty fabrics...
Cheers the Other Maria
Oh my!!! I've just discovered you are far far away and having such fun!!!! I've always wanted to visit Great Britain to see old castles and quaint cottages and all the things I've read about in historical novels! Oh and the delightful British countryside cottages!!!
Are you dropping in to visit Liz?? Hehe!!
Hello Maria,
How appropriate using up those Liberty pieces. Are you visiting the castle from Downton Abbey while you are there?
Happy travelling.
Bev.
