Today I can share the stitching I was doing before I left for New Zealand. I decided to make prayer flags for a few people I knew I would definitely be seeing during the trip. Today I handed over the final one to a very delighted recipient so I can share some pictures without spoiling any surprises. I took these photographs when we were at Kahoe in Northland, right at the beginning of our trip. The sunshine was gorgeous, much better than today! 
Today we have been into Auckland and escaped from the wind and rain in the lovely art gallery. We had to get a bus back to Al's niece's home and here's the view from the bus stop - not good eh?!!
The prayer flags are beautiful, no wonder they were well received. The weather was about the sane here yesterday till it brightened in the afternoon. Now we've woken up to fog.
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely gifts, what yuck weather! Pretty much like ours when I went to work yesterday!
ReplyDeleteStunning prayer flags! I agree it was a shocker of a day yesterday I hunkered down and spent time quilting although my husband shot into Auckland to a gallery - twice!!
ReplyDeleteI agree those are stunning gifts. Nice to have a plan B when the weather isn't cooperating.
ReplyDeletethe prayer flags are fantastic and such personal gifts - never another one like it. unpleasant weather seems to be the norm these days.
ReplyDeleteThe flags are stunning in the sunshine. The bus shelter is a good place to stay out of the rain.
