embroidery
I'm one of those people who cannot sit and just watch t.v and have to be doing something at the same time. usually it's knitting but I prefer to knit in the winter when we close the curtains early and the heating is on or the fire is lit. I have discovered the joy of embroidery all over again and here is my latest, made for a friend

Preparation method
Gently rinse over the elderflowers to remove any dirt or little creatures.
Pour the boiling water over the sugar in a very large mixing bowl. Stir well and leave to cool.
Add the citric acid, the orange and lemon slices, and then the flowers.
Leave in a cool place for 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
Strain through some muslin and transfer to sterilised bottles.
After straining the fruit and flowers I peeled the oranges, chopped them into segments and used them in a fruit salad. The lemons I chopped and froze to use in cold summer drinks
