Amy Day

My friend Marya has the Amy Butler Bag book and this week she and Theresa and I had a making day. I am so glad I had two experienced sewers with me as the instructions were a bit of a challenge. But with 6 hrs hard at it I succeeded- And very pretty it is too!

Images from G

And I think they look great- what do you think?

Tis the season

It's that time of year - it was the staff social club Christmas party today - and we had a great time - I look like I am channelling Hercule Poirot - thanks to the lovely Lee

Stir up Sunday

Stir up Sunday, the day when it is

50 and fun

Thai Food is good

Words fail me .....
