I was contacted by the co-ordinator of Network Heaven and asked if I could sew up some library bags for this year's shipment to Sri Lanka in September. A bag of fabric was handed to me and so it was time to make a start on cutting out the bags which was done during the week
While the cutting and sewing was happening this book was playing alongside me. Set in northern England in 1890 it is about the trials of women trying to get the vote.
This month's book club book is
I have to admit that I did not even give last months book the usual 2 chapter chance that I give all books before giving up on them - which is the first time with any book that I have not even opened it - as the subject matter did not appeal to me and judging from what the opinions of the other members were I was not wrong.
More reading matters
That about wraps up this week - don't forget to hop over here to see what else was happening with the other FNwF in their craft rooms.
Back soon and in the meantime
Happy sewing all
