Hello Blog My Old Friend....

.....It's time to talk with you again!


I don't quite know what's happened to me.
I've always been busy, but my life has reached new levels of busy-ness.
February just flew by with a trip to sort out my Mother's flat
which turned out to be a mammoth task...


We're awaiting a shipment of sentimentality soon...

[I was reading with Miss Kalico the other night
and she saw a picture of an aeroplane and she said:
"Mummy went on an aeroplane to Africa. It was sad" :'( ]

*****
I keep wanting to take photos of things I'm doing,
but the change in Seasons means that if you blink you miss photo weather....

(Spiderwebs get worked on now and again....:)


*****
The biggest change after my Mom passed away
was that I got a part time job.
I needed a job, the lack of sleep 
and the horrible flashbacks were making the days and nights very difficult.
I think Mom would have been pleased....
It's just a few hours a week with a lovely bunch of people
and a great boss (this may sound a bit creepy,
but when you've spent the last decade looking after your kids
you need a special job with great workmates 
and an understanding boss to break you back in ;o) )

Sewing has taken a bit of a back seat,
except I still sew pretty much every evening (as I always have).

I have been working on 2 tractor quilts....


And I finished my 'Luna Lapin' kit
from coolcrafting.co.uk

 I don't normally buy kits, but this one is so cute.

She's been adopted at work,
so I have made her a 'work' outfit:
 with fabric from our Spring/Summer ranges....
and tiny heart buttons on the back.

There has been much Easter crafting in this house:



And Easter baking:


I love letting Miss Kalico decorate the cake herself:


And 'to the victor the spoils' so to speak

I will try not to leave it so long.....
.....until next time xx
