Hello again!
Oh what a week full of goodies arriving...
To cheer up a rather cold spell...
First to arrive was my vintage fabric Swap from the lovely Joanne from Revamped Vintage, you can find her blog here...
We were partnered up via Ada of vintagesheetaddict.blogspot.co.uk/
I hope to make a lampshade from each of these lovely bits above...
My plans keep changing for the bit below...
After a good soak this beauty is vibrant again and I just love it!
and some sweet little handmade paper birdies...
THEN a much awaited box arrived from NewYork via Etsy...
After another good soak in ecover bleach....
This beautiful 50's dress, lovely full skirt with the sweetest homemade flowers at the shoulder and cute bees to die for...
This was a real treat, paid for with paypal credit from selling a couple of things on ebay...
So what else has been happening... well thanks to the very talented Lucy of http://attic24.typepad.com/
I have been making crochet flowers from recently found yarn...
I can't really believe I can actually crochet!!
Well flowers anyway... granny squares next...
I also found this 70"s pattern yesterday on ebay so am waiting for it to arrive so I can make my first dress...
and I have another Swap to think about this time via Bobo Bun I am paired up with the lovely Nancy from Canada... a long way away maybe but we find we have a great deal in common...
So I feel content, the sun is out, I have washing being blown about on the line, first time this year so all is well...
The week before was a different story... cd player broke... both headlights stopped working on the car (on the way home in the dark!) and the fridge freezer died... always in threes eh always in threes...
