Prynhawn da

Hello, long time no blog and all that! We've been to Wales for a few days, D#1 is back to school after half term and I'm about caught up with the washing- where does time go to??

A VERY long over due thank you to the lovely most generous Clare who sent me Mr P a lovely little parcel just before we went away with not one but FOUR Super Stylish Tank Tops! Here is the cheeky little chap in all his glory!







And this is is special top for special occasions and to remind him of his roots! (it's got a black and white stripy back....hehe)


Doesn't he look wicked?! Thank you Clare - you're far too talented for you own good!!

Quilt Update #3

Well it's finished, sent and received. I think I can safely say Clare likes it (it's on her living room wall already!) It was a bit sort of free style abstract in Clare's favourite colours.


I also sent Clare a bag (and matching tissue holder) I made her from this clever tutorial from Ric-Rac as a little thank you for very generously offering to make Mr P some tank tops.



I can't wait to see if Lucy's going to do another swap I've had so much fun with the ones she arranged already - thank you Lucy!! I've just signed up for (eyes left) LucyKate's Toadstool Swap can't wait to crack on with that!

More Lovely Post

Retail therapy delivery day 4!!

A small clue in the packaging....



Another little clue in the wrapping (love the cacti print!!)



What who could it be?


I bagged Mr P aka Mr Pigeon 029 from Charlie via her Etsy shop, he actually came with his own little passport, name tag and knitting pattern for a super stylish tank top! I'm in the process of hunting down a knitter to bribe!



Look at that cheeky little face! Isn't he fab!!!

D#2 is convinced that because he's a birdie he can indeed fly - this my friends is not the case but that doesn't stop her launching him through the air every time she gets her hands on him, he now lives away from small children - pah anyone would think little fluffy items were intended for children!!!!

Yesterday brought more lovely post my quilt from Clare!!


Isn't it brill? I LOVE it! Just need to find somewhere worthy to hang it. The pic really doesn't do it justice.

I also had some fabric bits, ribbon, buttons


and a matching handmade card.....



Aren't I a lucky girl?! Thank you Clare!!

The owner of the legs now has a body but is still naked so in the name of decency I will wait until he has clothes before I show him!
