lucky mumma

I would have to be the luckiest mummy in the world look at the beautiful wall hanging my eldest DD Amanda made for me
for my birthday back in may it came in the mail last week I love it soooo very much I also have a table runner and a cushion she made me out of the same fabric

I just need to get a nice hanger to hang it up at the moment I am using a cat toy LOL
I will be back soon with some pics of a new project I am working on

Hanky quilt

I have a girlfriend that is going through a tough patch at the moment so I decided to make here a little quilt
about a year ago she gave me her mums sewing things because her mum could not sew any more and my friend is not crafty when I was going through the sewing boxes I came across some hankies all neatly washed and Ironed at the time I thought I would like to do something with them but put them back in the box and left them to age .

well now I have done something with them and I hope my friend is happy with her little quilt it smells of her mums perfume so I hope it will be a comfort when she is in need of a hug hugs Beth

thrift finds

I just had to show you the good finds I had today
I hope to finish the little stitchery and add it to some Christmas decorations
the little book will be for sewing ideas I hop we to hang the wall hanging in the laundry and the vintage sheet is going into me growing stash I hope to get enough to make a summer quilt from them and the little cards are just because I like them.
I will be going now I am working on a gift for a friend I will show pics when I am finished
