bows

a few bows I have been making on an evening

I made these bookmarks and put them on my flickr page just as a something and they have been viewed 30 times - why?? They didn't take me long to make, and no blood, sweat or tears were shed making them, unlike my other things - so why so popular? Unless (due to my newness in all thing flickr/blogging etc I'm totally wrong) - or is it the frog? -that's it, it's the frog. 

Hurray! This is my first sale! I made these little hearts for Louise and she paid me! She was pleased and I was too. 

Giving it a go!

Mia ill in bed all weekend so I had a go at some designs using felt and embroidery. I got a bit obsessed by it. Of course, as always, I was not really pleased with my attempt.

washing on a Wednesday

I love washing, obviously not my body (or others) and not actually DOING the washing (or ironing) but washing on a line. I t really makes me smile, especially when you get a sneak look at someone's BEST on the line. I loved it when the kids were babies and their washing was tiny (both my babies were extra tiny) and cute and waved there on a lovely British summers day. 

So here's my washing, and maybe I'll do this sewing again and have a real think and draw about different types of washing and put less obvious things on the line.

brand new blog - day 1

Have no idea how to do this, so here goes

Firstly I've put in a picture of something nice.

A cloud which is appropriate for today. But it's smiling so that's good. 

 

Only one week till the summer holidays.

Make it a sunny one.
