Micks serenade...


My hubby has been trying to learn the guitar for a few months now, and I always tease him about it. I love nothing more than a man who can play and sing, but his practising drives me crazy and I'm not always as supportive as I should be! Anyway while getting things ready for Charlis party he came up to me and started playing a Johnny Cash song that he had practiced all weekend as a surprise! It sounded so good and I'm so proud of him for going well. Thank you...

A big girl now!


Charli has desperatly wanted her ears pierced for ages, and so yesterday, for her 8th birthday, she finally got them!! Here she is just after the first one. She was a little scared but did really well, not a sound from her really. And she looks so beautiful! They really suit her. Sorry about the quality of the photo, I think it's the camera. And look at Adel looking on! She wants hers done now......

Un-Valentines Day


Having gone down to Victoria for a family party, I missed seeing Mick on Valentines Day. Not that we do anything special, just a card. It just made me think how much I do love him! So when I went I left a box of chockies and a card that I made, and Charli gave it to Mick on the day. When I arrived home on Monday there was this beautiful potplant and card. I know he gave it to me cause I gave him something but who cares!! lol And the card.......he wrote some beautiful words, my favorite line was " I love being your wife". lol Poor mick, bit confused! But it was all gorgeous and I love him!!

Adels bag


I made this library bag for Adel, using a Rosalie Quinlan designs pattern "My Things", that my friend Catherine gave me. I have made mine a little different, but I am still so happy with the result! Ans so was Adel, she loved it and is using it already.

My friend...

As you know, we got a new kitten, Benji. Well Benji has taken to sitting in my machine while I sew! It is lovely and all that, I really like his company, but I do worry that the needle will get him! He pokes his paw in, plays with the cotton or fabrics on the table...... then has enough and falls asleep! Too cute!

Got the sewing bug!

Well since having the girls back at school I have got stuck into sewing, and have also done a LO and some cards. My mums 50th birthday is coming up so I made her a table runner and some cushion covers. She has a red couch so I am hoping like crazy that they will match!!
