Did you miss me last week?.....hehehe I doubt it but if you were wondering where I was then I will tell you....we took the day off and went to Tywyn for the day.....Milly's first trip to a beach :-)
Well, as you can see I'm back now and I'm another year older so on my desk are some of my many birthday pressies....
I was well and truly spoilt and as you can see I have friends and family that know how to make me smile.....of course it's all at the stroking stage as yet but one day I will find something special enough to make using some of it. I just love new fabrics.
I have lots of projects on the go at the mo but most of them are for presents so I'm sorry but I can't share the pics as yet. I have, of course made more Memory bears since the last time I joined in so thought I'd add a pic here too...
These are two little Christmas bears using babygros....aren't they cute?
I have rather a lot of orders for Memory bears pending now [think it's 13 at last count!] so guess I could get pretty busy between now and Christmas.....plus all the other things I plan to make that I have buzzing round in my head in the middle of the night. :-)
That's all from me for today....short and sweet just the way Julia likes it. Please leave me a little message to let me know you've called by and I will pop over to yours to see what you're up to this week.
Hugs,
Annie x

Hello Annie. Belated birthday greetings, glad you had a lovely week. I did miss you- I joined in last week after another absence, went looking for my favourite blogs and you were not there! Happy WOYWW Anne x #17
ReplyDeleteSo the bears are made from babygrows - what a brilliant idea and they look really great. I just love seeing folks creations - inspirational. Have a lovely week x Jackie 21
ReplyDeleteOooh, I do love crafty birthday presents!! You'll have great fun with those once you get past the stroking phase :-D. Blimey, I haven;t been to Tywyn for years, loved the pic of D and Milly on the beach :-D

Happy late Birthday...love the fabric and bears. My son gets home from Iraq today and during the time he has been gone my grand babies have been sleeping with a "stuffed doll" that has a picture of him printed on it. Really a cute idea for children missing loved ones either from deploy,ent or death. My daughter in law had them made up for the kids. For some reason I thought of you when she got them. I kept meaning to tell you but forgot! Thanks for sharing and stopping by my desk earlier. Have a great week Vickie #11

Oh I so wish I could sew to make one of those memory bears..they are beautiful. Happy WOYWW Elaine no. 18
ReplyDeleteI like friends who know what to buy for Birthday pressies much better than ten ton of bath stuff Lol! Love the new bears too. Have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, I missed your birthday. Cannot say I didn't know as i had read it somewhere. Just with all that is running in my head at the moment - but that is no excuse. I need a slap!
ReplyDeleteSo pleased for you that the bears are taking off big style and keeping you busy, it really is a wonderful idea and one which I am sure will keep you occupied for quite some time. You need more publicity about them and then they can go global.
Take care my friend
Hugs & Thanks for coming to see me

Oh, I hope you had a very happy birthday! What goodies for sure. As always, your memory bears are so lovely. I'm glad to know that they are appreciated and you're getting lots of orders. Here's hoping the process goes speedily and you continue to enjoy making them!

Hi Annie!!! It's always fun to have the people in your life bring fun gifts. I LOVE your bears! They are precious! Happy WOYWW! And hope you have a great weekend! Rasz
ReplyDeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteThe little bears are adorable! So cute.
Thank you for visiting me already. I'll be visiting people through the weekend, I'm afraid!
Hugs,

I bet Milly loved the beach, and if Monday was the same ther, you sure picked a good day for it, how lovely. a blSt of fresh air on a nice day to set you up for another busy week, huh. No surprise about the popularity of the bears, or indeed that you have new fabrics to play with! MNy happy returns girly.xxxx
ReplyDeleteLove the memory bears! I've been thinking about offering those for a while on my keepsake shop but I've not yet plucked up the courage to have a go. I think my niece is going to send a couple of babygros over that were her little boy's for me to play with...
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW for last week by the way - I'm late getting round.... as always.
