I love Chester! I've now been twice and still haven,t seen all I want to. I love the buildings, the history, the shopping oh and the cakes!
Now I am not a pudding or chocolate
Sort of girl, give me a sausage roll
Any day of the week
BUT
I had the above and it was
Yummy!!!
My beautiful girl had this
And little man
He had ice cream
Nothing fancy for him
And my DH
Well he has a strawberry gateau
Sort of thing and he had half eaten it by the time I got my camera out
So no picture I'm afraid!!!
A postcard , my DH took some
Photos but it was busy
And you couldn,t see this very well
As there were loads of
People in the way.
The postcard gives a better view
A couple of fabrics for Christmas
Mr Rooster
I was delighted to find this.
I have the panel but for some reason
Didn,t get the fat quarter
But found it in Chester
hooray!
Little man has adored sheep ALL
His life and when I
Found these I couldn,t resist
Now what to make him..decisions , decisions!!!
And then
I just loved this fabric
And just got it .
Couldn,t resist
The below ribbon too
That just says it all
(Lol , sums me up to a tee!!)
And a bit of hocus pocus
I had no Halloween stuff at all so
As I have a Halloween swap to get on with VERY
Soon
Some ribbon
And
A little something to inspire me..
I know my secret
Swap partner won,t be looking
So I can share.
And
Some more Chester
More postcards
Well the last couple of days have whizzed by. We saw Minions at the cinema on Monday...
Little man laughed and laughed
Lots of popcorn and some weird coloured blue
Ice drink for Little Miss
(A VERY RARE TREAT!)
Then
Pizza at nearby pizza restaurant,
Took a wrong turn on the way home but saw some beautiful
Sunshine (yes sunshine..where did that come from !!!)
And Carmarthen countryside
Always nice to do a detour!!!
And
the rest of the day spent
relaxing...just a perfect day.
Yesterday ALL the paperwork done, filed, posted ..yippee
How I detest paperwork.
Letters and cards written and sent too!
And I even made this
A little hand pieced pin cushion
And found this
I know I did this whilst on holiday in Cyprus
In 2012!
Onto the ever increasing pile of
WIP's it goes !!!
And I love making
Scissor fobs
(Probably because I seem to be forever losing scissors down the side of my arm chair!!)
This little sweetie
Is of the story of the gingerbread man
I used charms including the cow and goose
All mentioned in the story.
I am getting a little collection going
in fact!
I will share some more
I have made in future posts.
After all a crafter just can,t have too many scissors or pin cushions
Can she ????
Well on that happy note
I'll finish now
See you soon
