i just wanted to share a recent charity shop find...3 lovely napkins with beautiful embroidered corners...
all 3 for £1.75...bargain...
and last night i set to with a little idea...
and tah-dah...i made this little sewing/crochet case thingy-me-bob...
it still needs a bit of fine-tuning...but i think it's not half bad for a Thursday night!!!
and on to something completely different...(here comes weather watch again...) with it peeing down rather a lot at the moment here, i had a look through my photos and remembered days we spent on holiday in Wales with good friends, in 2009 and 2010...it rained probably everyday at some point...tho we did get some beach trips in(!)...we just got wellies and rain coats and off we went...
i have blogged about this amazing barn conversion set in the middle of nowhere in the Welsh countryside in my early blog days...but i thought a 2nd round of photos was allowed because i have such fond memories of the days spent here...there is something quite special about staying somewhere with no electricity...love it...
these were 4 sky lanterns we lit one night...
very happy days...
have a good weekend folks

What a lovely thrifted/homepun item! I could do with something like that for my everyday crafting...and give a home to the treasures found within my grandfather's sewing box today...
ReplyDeleteKath, fancy a blog swap...sewing case for crochet moustache????
ReplyDeleteoh my, tallulah looks so TINY!!! Wouldn't it be lovely to live in a place like that..with a solar powered sewing machine of course! You are so very clever on your Thursday night crafting..what will be next??
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such a beautiful place to stay! Very clever use of the napkins :)
