Friends & Friendship Banner...

Boy what a great week it has been ... I have had my friend Jean staying with me this week ... we have done shops over but sadly it's me spending not Jean as she has to watch what she buys as she is flying but never mind I've been able to get lots of great bargains so I'm feeling rather chaffed.
We had a couple of our friends [L & J] from the Gold Coast join us on my back patio on Fri for a day of show & tell, swapping ideas in our art/craft worlds, eating & drinking [only tea & coffee]. Whenever I go to Missy L. place she always has a little project for us to do so I had to rattle the old grey matter to come up with something different that we could do.I had seen a banner swap on a blogspot during the week when Jean & I were doing some surfing so thought that would be something nice to do to remember our day spent together and to make it more personal I would get my DH to take our photo and I would edit & print it up on some material to add to our banner project. It was a lot of fun and the four banners were all so very different and we all loved doing it. Here is mine all finished and when the other girls finish theirs and if they let me, I will either post their blogs or their banners for you to have a gander at. I can't believe it but Jean is back at her own home again - I do so miss her as it's just so nice to have another woman around the house to talk to & share our craft interests. Jean please don't leave it another year before we can get together again...
