Soggy Sunday…

It’s terrible here today as it has been for the past 2 weeks….nasty rain, freezing cold and windy….luckily the rain was only light when I set off to church, it started pouring down again when we were in Mass…luckily my Dad gave us a lift home otherwise we would have been well and truly soaked through :0(

It was little man’s 8th birthday on Friday….he had a good day, received presents, had a friend over for tea…pizza and chocolate cake by request! Yesterday he went shopping with my parents to choose his presents….a pair of big boy trainers and some clothes!

As the kids went with my parents yesterday, I had a childfree day to do some “stuff”, a quick trip into town to buy some cotton tape for my bunting for the kitchen, some toiletries and I found this bargain clock too….perfect for my kitchen…and a bargain at £3.99!

I spent a couple of hours in the afternoon putting some notes together for my final assignment…I am finding the subject of Sacred Places totally fascinating!

I then finished cutting out my bunting triangles and stitched up all 28, turned them the right way and pressed them all, so they are all ready to attach to the tape now!

I also finished up my knitted tea cosy…I used a free pattern from Lily….I’m pleased how it’s turned out!

and finally….I finished up my kitchen windows the other day…the light isn’t and hasn’t been good…but it gives you an idea….

Gift for Sally and PIF 2011 Draw

It’s Sally’s birthday today and here is a (not so good) picture of the little gift I sent to her…SDC11631
Primitive Sheep Sampler” by Betty Dekat – Primitive Betty’s
Stitched on 32c Jobelan “Bay Leaf”
Using DMC & WDW Threads
Since announcing my PIF I have also won a place on Gaynor’s PIF too so I thought that I would double up to 6….but then that would leave one person who had entered not receiving…so I have decided to send out PIF’s to all 7 people who entered…that is
Gracie, Claire, Fiona, Angela, Lisa, Sue & Chelsea
Ladies could you please email me at paperfaerie@rocketmail.com with your postal information please and you will receive a handmade item from me during 2011…all I ask from you is that you now offer the PIF on your blog :0)
Lots of stitching and decorating has been taking place here…but mainly for exchanges so I cannot share at the moment…
My giveaway is still open here so please go along to enter
