What a Difference a Day Makes - or in the case of Scottish weather, what a difference 5 minutes makes!
I went to a hen party on Saturday. We went to Tentsmuir Beach for a walk. It was grey and wild but it didn't stop us.
We had fresh local strawberries and pink champagne to celebrate! Carrying that tray of wine glasses from the car to the beach was fun!
On Sunday the sun was shining so I decided to go to Elie for a walk along part of the Fife Coastal Path to Shell Bay and it was blue and blowy but nice enough to put my feet in the sea for the first time this year! There were lots of kids playing on the beach - we're hardy lots us Scots - 17 degrees (63) and people were in the sea and digging in the sand!
I also managed a little crafting, just a little! I wanted to post my dolly for the Craft Hope exchange and made a slight addition to her before I packaged her up! Can you see the little addition?
I found the Black Apple doll pattern really easy to make and a lot of fun. If you've never tried to make a doll before then it is a good one to try.

Dear Di,
I want to thank you for your beautiful pages in my book!
My travelling journal has now returned home to Sweden after her long, long journey around the world. (And - oh my! -YOU have been travelling too!!)

(From how many have you been receiving pages for your journal?)
Love,
Olga
wish I'd been there for some pink fizz! xx
What a fun group of hens you belong to -- I can't imagine anything more perfect than strawberries and champagne on the beach. How exciting. Your little doll is really cute -- don't squish her too much in the box ;-).
Love your sweet little dolly!!!
Have to make myself one of these!!
All the best!
