jolly discounts :)

shop

typewriters and tarts :)

hello.....it's been a while I know... lots to catch up on but I'm not a wordy person as you know so I'll fill you in with some piccy's...

over half term we nipped off to the coast for a few days to blow away the cobwebs (boy it was freezing!) I loved it :) while away I found this very lovely typewriter...I love it so much I have unintentionally made a sort of shrine for it :)

then I did some sewing :)

a bit more sewing....

 

somehow one little owl ended up staying on the shelf...

...even more sewing...

a bit of Christmas crochet :)

spying my little shed in this lovely Magazine :)

and my little how to...:)

then spending a lovely day with crafty friends turning pillowcases into dresses

sewing, chatting, catching up and eating very lovely food and

 

 yummy home baked treats

( the dresses are for dress a girl around the world )

Happy weekend

conkers or just bonkers....

...sometimes I fall in and out of love with this blog....maybe it's the time of year ( my favourite ) but I just seem to want to be anywhere but looking at a screen...

I want to be outside walking in the fresh air...kicking orange leaves...finding spikey conkers...(mum of sons)...with pink cheeks and cold fingers. chasing a little dog with legs that never tire.and then inside for hot chocolate, a magazine, a pile of crafty stuff and my sketchbook....

 

I've made some things for home...

and some cushions for the shop

I got new fairy lights  :)

and found some fabrics that are a bit different to my usual ones....

...as well as my old  favourites....

 

 

so if I'm not here much at the moment... you know where I am :)

this week......

thrifting...birthdays..painting...wallpapering...chopping...not much sewing...
lots of blowing noses... thinking...drinking hot chocolate...making soup...more thinking...
eating birthday cake...crochet...a bit more thinking and lots more blowing of noses...and even more thinking....( too much thinking me thinks )

our #2 turned 10 so I made  Wacky Races bunting :)

our #1 needed new bedroom things :)

I bought new yarns and fabrics for some Christmas projects :)

I painted and papered an old spice rack :)

and a little thrifted wooden house :)

I hung my shelf on the wall :)

and to clear my head I decided to have a big sort out..I have been ruthless!
(clear shed = clear head)....so there will be bundles of vintage fabrics and wallpapers in the littleteawagon shop this week...

I'm changing a few things too, over here and in the shop so things might look a bit odd or missing 'till I get them sorted.. Thank you to all your entries for the Mollie Makes Book giveaway...I am looking forward to seeing who wins on Thursday...(still time to enter - see previous post )
