WOYWW...

 Hello all.  It's been another crazily busy week here at Sewing by Annie's and I'm loving it.  For those that don't know, I am stopping posting a Friday smiles post for now at least because it was becoming increasing difficult to find the time to write it so I plan to add a funny or two at the bottom of my Wednesday post instead.

I can now share with you the completed set of 5 Memory bears that were waiting to be made last week...

I loved making these and how they all turned out....my customer loved them too.

This is the next parcel that arrived yesterday....I am to make 12 bears with half of each in memory of a special Grandma and the other half in memory of her hubby.  They were a special couple known to me personally so will make the making of them even more special for me.

I have another 7/8 coming next Monday and a further two expected at some point too so I'm going to be kept busy....just the way I like it.

And just to make you smile.

Hope you're all having a great week.  I will do my best to pay you a visit as and when I can but it will be between jobs as I also have a Bridesmaid's dress to do today too.

Hugs,

This week's smiles....week 431

 Hello all.  Firstly I must say that this will be the last Friday smiles post for a while at least.  My life is so busy right now that I am limiting myself to the Wednesday posts until life settles down for us.  It's a commitment every week and I hate to let anyone down by not posting the link at least.  Thank you to all who have joined in each week and I hope you all understand.

Last week we had a lovely week near Tenby in south Wales and even managed to catch up with Jan [photo on Wednesday's post for those that haven't seen it].  We managed most days with no rain and even when it did rain it didn't affect us.  Here's just a few pics ....

I loved the knitted post box topper and the garden full of animals.  We enjoyed a lot of the little coves/beaches and Peggy enjoyed the freedom with her ball and the water when the situation allowed.

That just leaves me to share the funnies I've found in the last week and to say another big thank you for all the love and support each week.

Hugs,

WOYWW...

 Hello all.  I'm back from a lovely week away in a cottage near Tenby, South Wales.  The weather was kind to us and the only rain we had didn't spoil our week.  What improved our week was a meet up for coffee with this lovely lady on the Friday before we came home....

She had been suffering vertigo all week so we had had to pospone our catch up a couple of times earlier in the week.....but she was certainly worth the wait.....I call her my little Welsh sister. :-)

Since getting back I have had a steady flow of customers, mostly wanting Memory bears making.

These ones are for a lady who lives in Australia and every time she comes back to England to catch up with family/friends she calls in to have more bears made for folk from back in  Australia  :-)

I also have 5 more cut out ready to sew for a lady who originally wanted just one making :-)

On top of all these I have a parcel coming to make a bear for a lady from Scotland and another couple of parcels coming from Grantham for a lady wanting 10/15 making...I think I'm going to be kept busy :-)

That's all from me for this week.  I hope you're all fit and well and enjoying life.

Hugs,

Annie x
