It's been a week of partying and celebrations here for me.... My 60th was on Monday and it's my son Mark's 30th birthday today. I've been spoilt rotten and we still have a 80s/90s fancy dress party for my son to come yet.
I had party with all my family and many of my close friends last Sunday tea time and I was made to feel very special....many thanks to all who sent me cards and birthday messages. I'm sharing the gorgeous oil painting my hubby had done for me of a certain little special friend of mine....simply because I love it and know many of you will appreciate the talent of the artist....he's a local artist called Andy McIntyre of McIntyre Studios and I must say he is one very talented man. He's not only got a perfect likeness but he's managed to get her character into the painting....
I'm also sharing the gorgeous flowers my youngest daughter and her hubby sent me....because they are just too gorgeous to keep them all to myself....they are just all my fav colours.
There's not a lot on my desk this week because as you can imagine I've not had a lot of time for sewing but.....
I did make these new design tooth fairy pillows on Monday as a special request and have already sold two of them and....
...having had a visit from two very special little brownies yesterday I will be sewing their badges on today.
So there you go....I've shown you mine now if you leave me a little comment to say you've called by I will do my best to pop over to see what you've been up to this week.
Hugs,
Annie x

You're right, the ladies on that card I sent you did remind me of the mad Llandudno Three :-D I got it from a lady in Carmarthen market who did some really funny ones. I'm so pleased you've enjoyed your birthday week, the painting and flowers are amazing - shows how your family know and love you so well. Enjoy the fancy dress party too :-D

The painting is beautiful. What a lovely gift and what a lovely husband you have (but you already know that).
Sorry I didn't send you a card, only got back Saturday and both full of colds so head not working. Congratulations though - such a magical number (60).
Sunday sounds wonderful and heralds the start of your week that also sounds wonderful. Enjoy being 60!
Hugs, Neet xx 2
