Friday


We made it to Friday!

I do believe I forgot to show you my April Calendar photos. Well lets put that right straight away (just before the end of April..bit late I know)
April Homes and Antiques
April Ideal Home


April Period Living

April Sarah Raven
What awful weather we are having in the UK? Real April showers.
Blossom
At school we have managed to plant a few more trees on the rare fine days we have had.



My spring bulbs
With birthday money I bought......
...Yes a nice new sewing machine. There is nothing wrong with my old one but this one will let me do freestyle embroidery which I have been wanting to play with since my workshop at Hope and Elvis with Janet Clare last month.
Which leads me nicely onto My March Monthly Make which I also forgot to post!
Well it had to be my Easter Bonnet. I love the little rabbit I made from a pattern from Countryside Softies by Amy Adams.

I will do my April Monthly Make next week....just before the end of April!
I am sorry if I have not been to visit you recently but the time monsters have been about.
Hello to my new followers, I do try and follow you back but Blogger won't let me, but I do put you on my sidebar so I can pop over when I have a few moments.
 Have a good Weekend!

    Happy Friday! The sewing machine looks great ... I keep thinking from time to time that I should have one but to be honest I wouldn't know where to start with one (would have to cast my mind way back to my high school days and home economics class)! :) Have a beautiful weekend and keep dry!

    I like the blues on your page. Very soothing. You will love your sewing machine. I use a Bernina, but with work don't have much time to sew. I an anxious to see your new projects. Hope you share.

    I love your bonnet- the rabbit is very chumbly, but I'm particularly taken with those chicks- were they from a pattern? xxx

    Belated birthday wishes Lyn! Loved the photos of your birthday trip.

    Let's hope the relentless rain stops and we get to have some sunshine during May.

    I would be interested to know which sewing machine you bought, my trusty Elna's motor caught fire some weeks ago and I don't think it can be repaired.
    Lovely images.

    Hi Lyn
    Cute bonnet! I'm looking forward to seeing what embroidery you create with your new sewing machine - I enjoyed reading your post on the workshop.
    I think the picture of the bluebells with the church spire in the background is fantastic.

    I'm also way behind with my blog reading, and I can't understand why, because with all this rain we're having I've been stuck inside. I have been putting loads of things on ebay though which is time consuming.

    I love your finished Easter bonnet.
