The Bayeux Tapestry

The Apprentice is back from France with gifts. He has been to Bayeux and bought me back a bit of the tapestry to sew. I made an instant start, you know me, but it involves Bayeux stitch which is mighty tricky. I followed the instructions but somehow mine doesn't look like theirs. There are lots of horses in a boat - mine looks like dogs in a lorry. Oh well, I will continue.

Having watched Grand Designs last night, I decided a bit of prefabrication for my housing project is required, so this morning I cut out a zillion bits of fabric so all I have to do is sew them together but I am now too fatigued.

Mr Smith and I went to Kingston yesterday TOGETHER. Sometimes it's nice being married to a man who doesn't mind pulling a tartan shopping trolly through the market.
