Good evening
Another month has almost ended - what a difference to last April. Then we spent the almost the whole of the month searching for April Showers photos - I think it rained just one day at the beginning of that month! I've seen our local forecast and apparently we've had rain every day this month except the 1st! I quite believe it - its been tricky to get this months photos as the light has been awful and outdoors often to soggy.
Anyhow I completed the list yesterday and after a bit of tweaking - here are my offerings for April;
Rock - Aldeburgh seaside rock - the models have since been eaten by the teenagers ;)
In/Out - the needle of my sewing machine has worked overtime this month.
Amazing - the amount of rain we've had here in the drought areas!!
Can't live without - my weekend glass or two of wine!
On the move - one of the model steam engines at the Long Shop opening event.
Smile - one birthday girl and her cake (made by me).
Spring - cherry blossom (all gone now after the storms of the weekend).
Multi-coloured - the dress I made for my sister hanging against the fabric for one of my new dresses.
Sticky - Hot Cross Bun dough
Tangle - my embroidery threads.
Indulgence - 2 new magazines in the same week - actually in the same month - I try hard not to buy many magazines these days - blogs are far better reading :)
Direction - my neighbours weather vane - I think its supposed to be a traditional farmer rather than the Grim Reaper!!
Thanks as ever to Kathy for coming up with the list and for you lot for looking and commenting.
See you soon

What a lovely collection of photographs - love the colours of your threads. If that's the Long Shop museum in Leiston, my Great Granddad used to work there - it's on my list of places to visit :o)
I love your selection of photos especially the sewing machine and seaside rock you are also right about the glass of wine and the Country Living magazine!

Crikey, that does look like the grim reaper. Hope they are pointing him the other way! I like being inside and sewing when it is rainy, it always feels particularly productive. Lovely photos, Ellen x
Nice shots - love Rock!
Winner - you have the best one for rock. I am still in awe of the direction and the grim reaper. How unusual!
Snap with the rock!
Really good collection, I love the sticky one with the dough, looks so scrummy.
Tangled embroidery threads are a familiar find in my house too!

Ah, more sweet rock for rock! Love your cherry blossom photo and the steam engine:)
Great photos. I especially like the steam engine and the 'grim reaper'!
Oooo the rain puddle looks like a heart x
The weather vane is a bit terrifying, isn't it?!
The cake is a delight though, as is the birthday girl :)
No wonder she is smiling, that cake looks yummy. Don't like the weather vane though!
Nothing beats seaside rock! xxx
You are so right - I well remember going outside and watering my plants to get a good pic for the shower one last April. I really love your in and out pics they are very good.

Lovely photos - clever in/out, beautiful blossoms and your 'can't live without' made me smile - that went through my mind too! x
Oh no, please do let me think of it as the Grimreaper- that's much more funny!!
Great photos!!! I love the rock one! I was also going to do sewing for in/out but I didn't manage to find a victim to photograph!!!
Great group of photos, I like the direction photo.
Great selection of pictures,but the best has to be your sweet little girl with her yummy cake!
Hope you are having a happy week.X
Lovely photo's, I've enjoyed looking in on several of these scavenger hunts, what a super idea!
Great photos. I love the cherry blossom and the sticky dough.

Yummy cake and hot cross buns :-)
Really like the weather vane too.
