Busy week,little blighters.


A lot of sewing this week,too much in fact.
their were jeans to be mended,an under wire to be fixed back into a bra and then
aaaaagghhhhh
bloody badges!!!!!!!!!
Its remembrance Sunday coming up and badges must be  on uniforms, not in boxes sitting in the to do pile,
after I had sewn about 57 thousand of the blighters on, then,
then Angela tells me her no 1 son is making a good profit sewing on badges!!!
grrr If I had known, he could have done mine too. 

Anyway, after that I got on to some more interesting stuff.
Finally joined my four part journal quilts together
I really enjoyed stitching these , lovely valdani thread.



then I popped into our village charity shop, and the nice lady had saved me this.

wow, lovely soft fuchsia pink linen  with amazing buttons
what  does it want to be? I wonder.....



Then I sewed this, its a large sheet of christmassy stuff that you could cut decorations out of,
but actually it may go on to be a book cover [ or it might have a long sleep in the Christmas box.]

these are two little hearts that I will stitch into for the two smallest people in our family,
the other kids want to make their own hearts

And when we have all made a little heart, we are going to hang them on this big heart,on our kitchen wall
for Christmas.
