it’s my party

Sewing & Fabric 13 Comments

and I’m not going to cry! Yes it is my birthday today, and I think Hotel Chocolat have done quite well out of it!!! I’ve got some of these, and these, and I still have these from Christmas!!

I got a new pair of scissors, which I really did want, and an old fashioned wooden metre rule, which is something I have wanted for quite a while, and just not seen anywhere.

My sister in law made me this,

to match a necklace I already have, isn’t it lovely, I know I’ve shown you her work before, but all of it has been made by her, the lampwork beads and everything, have a peek at her Etsy shop, more lovely stuff on there, and I think she will be updating it within the next couple of weeks.

I have also done a bit more work on one of the new bags, looking like this,

very pleased with how it is going. I hope to finish off the front of the bag tonight. Today going to my parents, and looking forward to a lovely roast beef lunch as cooked by my very patient mother!
