I've been off the radar for a bit recently as we've been on holiday. We've just returned from a lovely trip to Northern Ireland. I fell in love with the north coast of NI last year while over at a family wedding so I wanted to return for more exploration. We based our time around the town of Portstewart, where my mother-in-law and family are from, and the causeway coast. Although I live by the sea here in South Wales, the north coast of NI is something else - dramatic, unspoilt and beautiful.
I had planned to make a crochet blanket and complete some more hand sewn hexagons whilst on holiday, neither of which materialised! I did a lot of reading and chilling though and I do feel refreshed coming back to everyday life :-).

The highlight of the trip - Titanic Experience, Belfast:

(Beautiful reproduction crockery in the museum's cafe!)
A trip to Avoca in Belfast City Centre yielded one beautiful blanket:
Fantastic week!
