I had an early start for Friday Night With Friends.
With an hour or so to spare before I had to head to the train station, I worked on a couple of projects.
I traced out Block 8 of Jenny's Vintage Kitchen.
I also made an apron.
Then it was time to catch a train into the city
to meet up with Nelson and his class mates.
Nelson had been spending the week in the city for City Cite as part of the Year 9 program. Friday night all the parents head into the City Cite office and listen to presentations of what they had learnt during the week.
There were a lot of new and exciting experiences. They learnt how to get around the city, caught trains and trams, interviewed people, surveyed people, visited the Magistrate's Court, Vic Market, Eureka Tower Skydeck and had a wonderful time. The group Nelson was in did their research on "Melbourne encourages people to be healthy in mind, body and soul". To finish off the night, we headed to the Crown Complex for some dinner.
So, although not a lot of sewing was done,
it was quite a busy Friday night.
Love your little stitcheries you've been working on and your Friday night sounds just lovely and Nelson looks like he enjoyed the experience as well :) Barb.
