WOYWW.....

 Hello all.  I hope you've all had a good week.  I haven't had many customers this week but enough to keep me ticking over.  Of course I've not been sat doing nothing.....



I found something I fancied making and it needed lots of little squares cutting out so I set to and worked out how many I needed from the pattern I'd cut out.  I  found lots of pretty fabrics and covered my sewing machine table in colour.






I spent last Wednesday patching together the pieces and then made this cute Easter rabbit....I was rather pleased with it even though it didn't look quite the same as it was on the picture even though I'd printed off the pattern supplied.








Yesterday, I finished making these 8 bowl cosies...each one is different with a different lining to the outers.  Jo wants a couple of these and the rest will go to make money for the charity.




We've bought a new soup maker this week.....I've always made soup using a pressure cooker then blitzed it with a hand held liquidiser ...lots of time, effort and mess needed.
I'm loving the soup maker and, having spent a few days with a sore mouth post my dental extraction, I really enjoyed both of these soups...the top one was broccoli and stilton and the lower one was tomato and vegetable.....yum yum.






A few weeks ago I took sympathy on the last amaryllis in Aldis when we shopped.  It has now rewarded me by sprouting three flower shoots....I've never had one with three before so I'm really looking foward to it blooming now.
















It's not a clear photo but my snowdrops have now started blooming....this always makes me smile.  Spring is on it's way.  Yahooooooo








That's all from me for this week. If you leave me a little message so I know you've called by I will pop over to yours to see what you've been up to this week.  I hope it's been a good one for you.
Hugs,
Annie x

  2. Oh lots to see today absolutely love the bunny, the colours and fabrics are perfect. "Two soups" they look delicious, didn't even know there was such a thing as a soup maker. I've been thinking I'd like an Amaryllis again what a great save. Yep we have loads of snowdrops coming up too they do make you smile don't they. Hugs Bj#1

  4. Hi Annie, thanks for the visit to mine. I'm late today as I'm on catch up with stuff. I don't travel well and it takes me a while to get back to normal so lots of sleep since we got back. It's something to do with altitude, I'm fine going up the mountain but not so good when we get back. Your bunny is beautiful and a great way to use up the fabric pieces. We've got lots of snowdrops too they always make me smile they're so pretty. Wishing you a very happy woyww, Angela x14x

  6. The bunny is absolutely gorgeous - the colours are so pretty. I like the idea of a soup maker - I didn't know they were a thing - I still make it the old fashioned way ending up with liquidiser - certainly something to look into as we live on the stuff at this time of year, and yours look really delicious.
    Hope you have a great week,

  8. Yahoo for Spring - I echo you! Was out at the weekend and photographed snowdrops and sent the pic to my DD with 'it's a sign' ! She lives on the South coast so hasnt had the freezings and fogs that we've had, but any sign of Spring is a good thing, huh! Love the patchwork Bunny, shes absolutely gorgeous. Bet you secretly love having the odd quiet week. Bet Doddy realy does! Love a good soup, happy to hear that you're healing , it is a slow thing when someone opens a gap that feels like a pot hole in your mouth!
