Come back, summer!!!

I took this photo from our bedroom window, about 3 weeks ago, on a VERY stormy evening. 


Since that night, we’ve had glorious, summery weather.  It’s been hot, the skies have been blue, and there’s been a nice, gentle breeze.  We’ve spent a few lovely evenings and long-weekends (thank you, Germany, for all your bank holiday days) sitting out on our terrace, gardening, eating alfresco, digging out our summery clothes.....

Well, that was until today!  It rained, and the temperature has dropped by about 10 degrees.  Yuk!!!

So, in attempt to make the sun come back out to play, I thought I’d show you some sunglasses cases I’ve been making. 







These are all for an ‘Open House’ event I’m planning, with some other crafty ladies, for the beginning of July.  More on that to follow in another post.....

Before I say "cheerio", I just wanted to say THANK YOU for leaving such lovely comments on my last post.  You made me smile, made my day, and boosted my crocheting-confidence all in one go!!!  

Until next time.....

Carly

  2. Hey Carly, you have been busy....those sunglass cases are great, love the polka dots and the first stripey one.
    Great fabrics, I'm sure they'll be popular. Your open house event sounds very interesting. Look forward to reading about it.

    Glad you have been able to enjoy some lovely, warm weather I hope it returns soon. It's the first day of WInter here, not too chilly, it's going to be 17 deg. but temps are bound to drop soon.

    Have a great weekend,

    CLaire :}

  7. Dear Carly,

    You do this to me every time; you lure me with your eye for colour and as I scroll down I think to myself 'ooh, I like THAT one, no THAT one, and and THAT one too'! I love them all Carly.

  8. Oh good luck for your next crafty stall- who couldn't resist these gorgeous sunglasses cases?!!
    And yes, it's been miserable and cold here in the UK too. (we've actually had the heating on this evening- brrrrrrrrrr!)
    Enjoy the rest of your week!
