bowling...baking...building...

so we had half term and took off in the car, drove 4 hours and stayed with grandma and grandad for 5 days...it was a lovely break

Lego + Muji = Fantastic

 The Head of Finance found these in a charity shop...wow

a post of few words...but many pictures...

a few cheeky little finds...

just a few recent charity shop find...

 can you tell what this is:

ta-dah...a fab cake stand...

i am LOVING the painting, it was £10 and it's just beautiful in our dining room...it was painted in 1993 by A.Saunders - i have googled him and can find a painter in Ely with the same name, which isn't too far from here...maybe the same person, maybe not..either way i still love it...

my blog was a year old on Saturday...i feel i should have made some lovely cakes to put on the new cake stand to celebrate...but no...i only just realised today!!!

a bit of colour...

i was just  having a  look through my photos from the last couple of years, i do this quite often, and i seem to lose hours in the process...i don't know whether it's because i have 3 children and they really do change quite dramatically in a 6 month period, so i love looking at how their little faces have changed shape, or how long Miss T's hair is now...

...anyway, i found pictures of this quilt i made (in October 2010)!!! 

it was one of the first quilts i made like this, using strips of fabric and making backing out of a fleece blanket, it may not be the most perfect quilt in the world, but i think it looks pretty smart...what do you think???
