Nice Light

There's nothing like a bit of sunlight

to give you just the right natural light

to take photos that are sharp

and true in colour

This is the first proper sunny day we've had in a while!

It looked like it was nice outside...

Late Delivery

Santa finally delivered my new camera...

...love it!

Thank you so much!

(no excuses now for bad photos?!)

This dang Blog!

I've done less sewing since I started this blog than I used to do! Admittedly, I have had a sick clingy baby who I'm pleased to say is much better...

In fact he's even been eating a little something...


The only 'sewing-related' thing I did this weekend was to attempt to clear out my sewing room. This is a BIG job as I share the space with the washing machine, tumble dryer and freezer! I was tempted to take a 'before' and 'after' pic, but 'after' may be a while and 'before' is a bit depressing at the moment. But here is the camera (being investigated) when the time comes for a pic...


Oh, and a few days ago I did sew a bit of my PP rose together only to discover that one of the greens ran when I steam ironed it!!! So annoying as it had been prewashed. However I have been washing the whole piece using colour catcher sheets and some of Birgit's tips. Fingers crossed. Will post a pic of my progress soon. Want to get that finished and back in the UFO box so I can show another one.
