Not much has been happening. My boys have gone to USA for nearly 3 weeks with my parents for a holiday. Lucky them! I can't wait to have them home... not long now, only a few more sleeps.
Dh and I went op shopping the other day (I am not sure who is worse, DH or I!!).. He loves looking through things looking for a bargain.. suits me fine! I do too!! On the day there was a sign up saying sheets $2 so I picked up a couple that I liked. When I got home I realised that one was a Sheridan sheet (another one! That's 3 that I have picked up in my op shopping travels.) I love Sheridan sheets.. they are so soft and beautiful and soft.. did I mention they were soft?? The other one is the same as my banner! (Yep, I scanned my fabric for my banner LOL).. I think Clair had some fabric the same ages ago.. or something very similar anyway.. Not many patterns caught my fancy (shock horror!).. I have 2 nappy boxes FULL of patterns at the moment.. Can I admit on here that I have a slight addiction for patterns?? You wont tell anyone will you?
I've been sewing too. I made a top for myself. I tried to copy a top that I had bought awhile ago. Didn't turn out too bad.. looks nothing like the original though LOL!! I also made Emily a top as well but that just didn't turn out the way I had planned.. After unpicking the bias binding several times I got it to fit (it's only 'just' too big) but then the rest of the top looked like a tent so I fixed that up with a few rows of shirring.. I will try to blog it one day.. if she ever stands still!!
Speaking of the little darling.. She is at the most adorable yet patience testing age.. thankfully the patience testing doesn't happen too often. She is singing full songs/nursery rhymes on her own without prompting. She attempts to dress herself.. her speech is so clear. I have people comment on how clear her vocabulary is. I'm so proud of my baby girl..
Well that's about it from me for now. Hello to you all out there. Please take a moment and post a comment, even if it's just to say HI!.. It really makes my day (I don't get out much LOL!).
