A long post today...

Ok, first up is a completely new project which has just gone into my etsy shop, I made the front circle as a separate piece that has been lightly padded before being sewn onto the front. I am really pleased how this has turned out, the padding seems to add another dimension to an otherwise flat item. I have already started the second one, hopefully pictures soon. And after a request from a certain sister, below are pictures of the fabric I got at Ikea yesterday, the ones in the first picture I couldn't resist, the one in the second is going to become a couple of cushions for Hollys bedroom, once I've been in the loft and found my quilting fabric... And this last picture is of the tea party Holly and I had yesterday, the party food was an eclectic mix of biscuits, cakes and cooked items like peas and onions, which were part of Hollys christmas present from her Aunty Sarah. (They taste great by the way, although not so great if you have an onion and then a cookie) : )
