R.A.K……that is what I have received from the lovely Shez……I have been admiring these bags and scarves on Shez’s blog for ages…..and now I have my very own gorgeous set…

You must agree, I am just so very lucky….and the icing on my cake was the “Old Gold Chocolate Bunnies”…and yes the second one is missing his head…LOL….

Shez thank you so much…I was having a bad day yesterday and your parcel did brighten my day….great big mwah to you…

and I really must thank Maree for organizing the  RAK for 2011…

P.S…..Mandy UK…asked what I used to transfer my patterns onto my fabric with…..I use a green (and only green) fine artline felt pen…….I usually buy them at my local newsagency…….the pen just rinses out in warm water with a little bit of soap power (I use a stain soaker)…..…..Thanks Mandy

Happy Saturday…

This was a table runner that I started out at Carols retreat last weekend……I have joined the Fig Tree Pattern Club thru Patchwork Plus (Sarah has the most amazing online shop)…….and this is one of the projects, I have changed the background fabric to this piece of linen only because the linen blends better in my dining room where the table runner will live….(which is going to be on my sideboard)…

OPAMers…..the winners for April have been announced please pop over and have a look at Kris’s blog……it may be you (I know these winners will be very excited)…

681 Finishes for the month…..

that is just amazing….congratulations to our three winners and congratulations to everyone, the satisfaction of another finish is a pretty awesome feeling….

Happy  Thursday…

If you've lost your enthusiasm, there's no better place to find it than on a skipping excursion.  And, you might just find your lost youth as well!
