This lovely parcel I received from Debbie,
Look at those fabrics, I nearly fainted with delight.
Also some sweet stickers, a Comes Mart postcard, a lovely handmade card,and a cute little notelet. look at that little chick on the puppy's head, I've got my eye on making him into something.
Thankyou Debbie, good job you live so far away or I'd smother you in kisses . XXX
Other things I have fallen in love with this week are these fantastic paintings by Juju.
Amazingly wonderful. Sigh.
Thankyou once again for your lovely comments, I do hope to start making animal purses and baby monkeys and other things to sell/swap soon, production has all but ceased at the moment, due to children on holiday, husband on holiday (enough said) and the ongoing saga of decorating that bloody sitting room. Grrrr.
Molly and I have nearly finished a hobby horse though, so hopefully pictures of that tomorrow.
Husbands and kids have a way of slowing down creativity don't they? But we love 'em all the same...hope you find some time to play!

Wow, did I really send you that?! It looks so much better in your photo! Glad you like dahling, anytime. And you are so right about Juju's paintings. Do you think we can convince her to make prints? Ok, we're waiting for the big reveal of the hobbie horse, lucky Molly. And maybe some photos of your sitting room?! Hugs...

Alice is delighted with your comment - thanks. And Phoebe isn't hiding anything - she'd just set up when I took the photo and then did a lovely watercolour of flowers which she sent to Nana fro her birthday.
Simon loves your comments - particularly about your husband's total lack of inhibition (Simon had to have a back tooth out last week and tortured us all trying to show us the hole - I wouldn't be smiling for months) and the fact that you're quite happy to feed him cake that's been on the floor. I think he now knows where his has been sometimes.
We are four weeks into eight and a half weeks of school holidays. So now I need a holiday.
