"Springie" Blue Giveaway

Been playing with a few bits and pieces,
waiting for the sun to come out again,
so I can go back to my spring gardening.
I found these,
and wondered if you would like it?
Fresh "springie"
colours.
 
 
A little packet of fabric,
ribbons and lace,
a hank of Cottage Garden Thread -
shade - tulip
(of course:)
 some little gift tags,
buttons,
and even a wee packet of seed
from my poppies last year.
 
The alternative to pottering around,
putting this bundle of bits and bobs together,
was
vacumning!
No contest really:)
So...
if you think you would like this little parcel
of goodies,
leave a comment here,
or over on my facebook page,
and tell me...
what's the chore that gives you the blues :)
See you in a week
or maybe just a little longer:)

Pink Winner

Ooops,
I forgot.
Sorry :(
To be honest,
I'm not really sure where last week went,
but it did ''went''
and went much too fast,
and I forgot about the pink winner.
So,
before I forget again,
the winner is....

Jo H,

who left a comment here.
Just so I know,
I have the right Jo,
can you email me your address :)
Ta:)
And a parcel of pink
is on it's way
to you:)
And "ta" to all who entered as well.
I'll be back soon with another one,
and I promise
not to foget this time!!
See you
Jenny

Buttons?

Anyone for buttons?
Got some yummy new supplies of buttons
last week -
lots of new colours and sizes,
and I'm going to mix 'em all up
and sell 'em
by
the pound!!


1 lb, 4 oz's
to be exact,
and nope,
haven't got a clue
what that is in metric.
I have a gorgeous old fashioned
set of scales
in pounds and ounces,
and that's how I measure my
flour and sugar,
and other stuff
for baking,
so that's how I've measured the buttons:)
All I can say,
for those that don't know
pounds and ounces,
is that it's
a lot
 of buttons:)
I'll pop these on the website really soon
- tonight -
 they will be on the
''garage sale''
page
along with lots of other
bits and pieces
that I've added yesterday,
and I'll be adding more
today
and
  tomorrow :)



See you at the garage sale:)

 flowers...

So,
would you like some pink bits and pieces?


If you would,

The perfect recipe :)

There's been a couple of ''play'' days
this week,
'cos Mother Nature's
been dishing out some cold wet stuff!
So ...
I've been wanting to make these little hearts
for a while -
sort of had them started a while ago,
so it was fun to finish them...


... I honestly truly love making
heart "thingies" ...
well why wouldn't you :)
I have a drawer where I keep my
little plastic templates
of the shapes that I draw
and
truly,
nine out of ten
of them
are hearts!!!
I know,
hard to believe ay:)


 I reckon this is the perfect recipe ...
hearts,
linens and lace,
lavender
and a very cute button:)

And I finished this cushion too ...


... more linen,
more lace,
a little stitchery,
some other ''bits'' and
some very old pure silk fabric
that is amazing to stitch on:)


Looking forward to seeing some of you
at
the
Final Day Sale
tomorrow.

See you later
Jenny :)
