Again I sewed

Yeah yippee I managed to finish another item today woohoo to me…

This was a present for Mrs D’s b-day last month and I knew I wasn’t going to get it completed in time and purchased her something else..and today it pleased me to be able to hand her over…

P1040365  This pattern was in Patchwork & Stitching magazine  Vol10  No9, I had a bit of trouble working out the design but a quick email to Maryanne Dodson (the designer of the pattern) I was off on my merry way- however the embroidery made my arm get very cantankerous so I limited the daisies' to just  a few and Mrs D loved it...

Whilst I was inside sewing this was going on outside

P1040366 what you see there is the roof section off my carport hubby is making me..he’s a good man.

Then this afternoon I got real busy and totally cleaned my bookshelf in my sewing room.

P1040367 P1040368

   all the Magazines you see above are surplus to my needs many are doubles and some are just ones that I know I will never use, I shall hold onto them for a while in case someone is looking for a particular issue..so please don’t hesitate to ask.

Cheers Vickie

Thanks for stopping by.
