What a lovely place it is too. I loved all the beautiful and intriguing independent shops in the New Laines area and the Lanes themselves. Wonderful and unusual things to buy. And so many tea and cake shops, which was not so good for the waistline. The weekend was topped off by a walk along Brighton Pier where we indulged in shove ha'penny (or two pence in new money) and several sticks of tooth tingling rock. Bracing but brilliant.
The cultural itch was scratched by a whirl around the Royal Pavilion which I really enjoyed, particularly all the explanation about the conservation projects that have gone on. Bit of a busman's holiday but who cares?
It all helped to feed the creative spirit and so, on my return, I have finally managed to crack on and finish two of my tea cosy projects. Below you can see the fruits of the past few Diamond Knitters Group here in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter. I now feel a patriotic version coming on to celebrate the wedding. Aplogies.
