29 Mar{this moment}
A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.
Some of the things I have been making!
10 MarI have not posted on this blog for ages, but I have been busy sewing and making all sorts of things, so I thought I would share a few.
A skirt I made using a kit from the fantastic Kollabora website, which was really quick and easy!
Some seat cushions for my sister’s dining room chairs
A skirt for my best friend for Christmas, funky fabric from Trixielixie.co.uk (My teenage daughter made the lovely blouse, it’s the Colette Jasmine sewing pattern)
A lovely dress for my lovely sister!
A first birthday card for my gorgeous nephew.
A Mothers day card for my Wonderful Mum!
Some more birthday cards, and finally a door stop for my sister! (To match her cushions)
A very busy month! And now I’ve got another list of things to make, better make a start on it!
Higgledy Garden seeds
1 FebI bought these seeds as an Anniversary present for my husband to grow to give to me!
They are from a great blogging site here Higgledy Garden
I bought 6 varieties and they gave me an extra one free to try, what excellent service!
Wedding Anniversary
27 JanAmy made us a lovely cake today to celebrate our 19th Wedding Anniversary which is on Tuesday!
My wedding dress was made by my sister, it is a lovely fabric that we bought in Liberties of London, I have vintage petticoats on and a handmade hat that I had made, but I can’t remember who by! The dress still fits!
