WOYWW.....

 Phew.... it's getting hot in here...and I can't take off all my clothes cos it puts off my customers :-)

I hope you are managing to keep cool and hydrated.

I've had a steady flow of customers even though it's been a hot one.

I managed to finish the bear you saw I was going to make last week and the lady who brought those clothes loved the bear so much that she asked me to make another one with the left overs [for her other daughter].....

...this time adding a green jumper her daughter wore as a deputy head girl.

She's shared these two with her friends who also have children moving up to big school this time so maybe I will get more orders :-)

The pile of cut out frogs has grown and I've even started sewing some of them but it's been too hot to do much more.

That's all from me for today.  I will pop over to see what you've been up to as and when I can.

Stay cool and drink plenty folks.

Hello all.  I hope you've all had a fab week....I have.

Sunday we went to Birmingham to see Les Miserables with that much older big sister of mine.

Whilst there we walked into a friend of our Grandson, Sam.  I've known Aled from nursery school where he went with Lexi and Sam and have watched him grow into a lovely young man...he goes to Wiggle with Sam and as you can see he's now much taller than us....he's playing a part in Wiggle's Les Mis later in the year.

It was an amazing show and a lovely time was had by all.

Our garden is blooming in every corner so I had to share them with you...I know so many of you like to see them.

This is what's on my desk today.  This is the first of my school Memory bears for this year [the first of many I'm sure].

If you leave me a little message I will do my best to pop over to see what you've been up to as and when I can....I have another prom dress coming this morning :-)

 Hi all.  It's been a bit of a butterfly week for me.  I've gone from one job to another.  I've had a steady flow of customers and as soon as I've done their sewing they have come and collected it so there has been lots of coming and going.

I added twiddlers inside and out of my latest twiddle mitt and finished it off....I think my 3 will go with Jo's up to the hospital's dementia unit at some point.

In between sewing jobs I have started cutting out another batch of frogs for the charity...it's been a while since I made some.

These are the latest pair of Memory bears I've made this week...this means I just need to make 5 more to reach my 1000. :-)

Finally the last thing I'm sharing today is this lovely Bridesmaid dress that arrived yesterday afternoon...I will be shortening this today so will be visiting all those that call on me in between jobs.

I hope you all have a great week.  I will be thinking of Jan tomorrow when she goes in to have her cataracts done...really hope all goes well Jan.

Hugs,

 Hello all.  Thankfully it's been a bit cooler this week so I've managed the steady stream of customers I've had.  

This is the latest Prom dress I've had to shorten.  It's another navy blue one as you can see and it also had stiffener all around the hem the same as the last one but this one was only about 4 metres around the bottom [not the 12 metres the last one was].  She looked lovely in her dress so I'm hoping she's pleased now I've shortened it by the 17cm needed.

I've done a bit more knitting on my last twiddle mitt and am now on the last strip of yellow colour but to be honest it's been too hot for knitting much lately.  Just need to add the twiddles next.

Finally I just thought you might like to share a bit of the colour we are enjoying in our back garden this week.

That's all from me for this week.  It's short but sweet today but needs must when I'm busy. :-)

Hugs,
