WOYWW....

 Good morning all.  It feels a bit like the morning after the night before this week.  What a wonderful week of celebrations we had last week....and I'm going to share pics of the ATCs I've received so far [I know Jo has some for me so I will share those next week].

I've had so many little works of art through my letter box.

Many thanks to...

Julia

Lyn

Angela

Helen

Diana

Caro

Jo

Catriona

Ali

Tracy

and Jan

They are all so very different but each one is made with love and I will treasure them so thank you from the bottom of my heart.

The only other thing I have to share with you this week is a lovely new hang about I made to match my cushion.  My old one was looking very old and tired and it really wasn't until I had taken it apart to reuse the sand etc that I realised just how much I use it....I kept going to drop my snippets of thread in it!!

I hope you have enjoyed your visit.  Many thank again to those who have sent love and friendship through my letterbox.  I really do appreciate it all.

Hugs,

WOYWW...13th Year Celebrations

 It's been a manic week here for me but I have still managed to make my ATCs for the swap...I think Jo has a list of the ones wanting to swap because we are both sending them out together. 

Since last week I have....

Made this lovely Memory bear out of a wonderful husband's favourite shirt.

Made these three Memory dogs in memory of a 19 year old little dog that died of old age but was a very special friend for it's owner.  They are made out of the dogs toys and blankets.

Made this Memory cat in memory of a much loved Mum.  I was asked to put a lock of her hair inside when I stuffed it so I made a little fabric heart shaped pocket to keep it safe inside.

On top of all that I have 

• shortened 5 shirts, 
• let out 3 pair of trousers,
• shortened a coat,
• put a zip in a gents hoody
• and adjusted a pair of surgical support pants [yes I do get asked to do all sorts here].

I have also..

Raised both these two bridesmaids dresses at the shoulders and shortened the one.

My next job is to shorten the 4 hems on this gorgeous prom dress so that's what I will be busy doing today plus...

• I have more memory bears on their way and 
• another dress coming for me to work my wonders on this morning.

As you can see the fun never ends here for me and, as always, it never rains but it pours.  I will do my best to call on as many as I can this week but for now...

Happy 13th year celebrations to you all and here to many more.  Thank you all for the love and friendship over the years.

Hugs,

Annie x
