The good,

The good involves

a super fun blogmeet at Nikki's last Friday . It was great to catch up with bloggers I know well, bloggers I know a little bit and bloggers whom I hadn't met before. Nikki is definitely the hostess with the mostess - she even had a craft table set up to keep the kids occupied (although for the most part they seemed more interested in the cakey goodness).

an unexpected and delightful gift from the wondrous Tinnie Girl (stay tuned some of that fabric is getting used TODAY) On a side note the tinnies are now an endangered species so if you want one you'd better get moving.

These cute little buttons I bought for absolutely no reason except that they made me laugh. I got them from this great Etsy seller and they arrived from New Zealand in double-quick time.

Piles of supplies, both new

and thrifted

and two glorious weeks of holidays stretched out before me...........

  22. What a marvelous idea to have a gift box. I am going to start one! Will you show us what's in yours? (besides the potholders)

    Your softie looks like a kangaroo, definitely in need of a pocket.
