my protégé...

I spent the last couple of days taking a small break with my family up in Cheshire. Orders were piling in, but my sanity was waning, so I grabbed a 48 hour 'rest' to rejuvenate!

We had a wonderful time walking, eating and relaxing but the highlight of the trip for me was helping my 8 year old goddaughter get to grips with her mini pink sewing machine...

She made lavender pillows and a cute lavender heart, and I gave her a few tips on how to use the machine. The only help I really gave her was in cutting out the heart shapes for the lavender heart, the rest she was getting pretty nifty at... it looks like I have a little protégé in my midst!

bunnies and eggs...

Since Top Drawer in January I have made over 150 egg cosies. I knew there had been a constant stream of bunnies going from the sewing machine to being packaged up for their new homes, and lots of eggs, chickens and hearts being stitched, but I had no idea just how many... and quite frankly I am amazed!

So here are a couple of snaps I took whilst making lots more egg cosies this week... just in time for Valentine's Day and Easter! x

let it snow...

Snowy scenes are greeting people all over the UK today, for us here in Gloucestershire the snow fell all yesterday afternoon and well into the evening...

I would describe our snow as a 'persistent sprinkling', although it was fairly deep on the roads by the time we attempted to head out for dinner in the evening...

Unfortunately for us (and our sledges - eagerly anticipating a run or two today) the snow was pretty much all gone when we woke up this morning. So until next time snow, my sledge and I are awaiting your return... x
