RUFFLES!


Actually managed to get some stuff done today. Just got back from a long weekend up in Kericho where we stayed at an old colonial house, Kweisos, which had amazing views and just a glorious place. Only knew 3 of the other 12 before we went but everyone was absolutely lovely and we had a fun weekend though we all ate far too much!! Did lots of walking, swimming, played tennis . . great fun! Here are the things I managed today - not sure about the ruffles on the cushion - thought it needed something but not sure this is it!

Tried printing onto hessian and seems to work! Tried washing it and seems to be quite colour fast

Back of cushion. Cant see but ruffle is on edge of opening

Front of cushion

Like the contrast between the wool and the hessian. Will try doing something different with the back next time.

Otherwise, pajero in garage as starter motor gone and shock at back gone. Lovely friends have leant us a car which is great. Started swimming at Muthaiga club again which is lovely with all the alterations - and the food much better too. Rest of week . . .  seeing friends, going to Mtumba (secondhand clothes) and down Biashara street to get more hessian etc for the craft stuff. Next week going to cabin at Naivasha which is so lovely. Have a good one x
