How Lucky Am I!



VERY! Look what my lovely friend Andrea sent me,apparently when sorting her stash she discovered that she had 2 and so she posted the spare one to me!







Andrea and I were, at college together the 80's, yeah I know, a long time ago now.We lost touch for a long time, after she moved to London.She then contacted me years later and we try to meet up, usually only about once a year, but when we do we have LOADS to chat about,You see Andrea was the only friend that crafted and decorated and all that stuff so we'd chat for hours about all our ideas.Obviously now I've found Blogland, I am in heaven as there are loads of like minded people here!Anyway if you happen to be reading this Andrea THANK YOU,I love ya loads! Here are some piccies from this gorgeous book, I can't wait to get started!

In other news I have put some Vintage items on my website.This cute little chap and his little friend Aren't they sweet!
I'm off to make some stuff now, have a great day!

Lucky you - and what a very lucky friend to have such a large stash that duplicates can be lost in amongst it! Wishing you a lovely weekend. x

That books on my Amazon 'Wishlist', let me know what you think to it, and then I might justify buying it! The teddy bears are beautiful.

It's a lovely book isn't it, I made the very same basin "skirt" as the pic for my daughter's room.
Congratulations to your daughter for her uni offer by the way, I'm a long way from that just now but it'll come around all too soon!
