Mother of the year

This is Jackson, in his funky liberty shirt.

He has a scarf, beanie, coat and man-bag.

Inside the man-bag is a teeny tiny music book.
Jackson is in the band you know

He plays keys.

God help me when the drummer has a birthday.

The lure of the Lilliputian

Dear friends, I think I might need an intervention

Parsley and Beet pattern reduced to 50% in size..

If I start talking doll houses-just shoot me.

The eyes have it............

Daylesford

Once again I seemed to have failed in the photography department on the weekend. As you can imagine it was a dignified affair, lots of quiet sewing and sharing of ideas. Rumours of people line-dancing and swimming laps in their spa are grossly exaggerated.
Tales of busted zips, failed french knots and people finishing their swap projects at the breakfast buffet are also to be taken with a grain of salt.
I met some great people on the weekend,learnt heaps from stitchers far more experienced than I, ate quite a lot and drank some as well. and I laughed, and laughed. I snickered, chortled giggled and guffawed for the best part of three days. I laughed loud and long, I clenched the lady muscles at times and I snorted more than once. If the level of exhaustion I feel now directly correlates to the amount of laughing I did on the weekend , then I am happy to feel so tired.In boring health news, the toothache that doesn't exist is not a sinus problem , the scan showed no problems at all. So we are back at the start, and looking at another visit to the dentist. At my chirpiest I am fine - a few painkillers a day and its all manageable , but at 2am when it wakes me up and I either get up for painkillers or try to go back to sleep I am ready to remove all my teeth with the first kitchen implement that comes to hand.

What's the time?

On the Craft Clock ?
Time for the Daylesford craft Experience !

free kick

X-ray of the head tomorrow.........

O.K. your turn - bring on the empty vessel jokes.

It's not often I break out the pom-poms

I'm in a new-toy making frenzy at the moment - mind you it is a long drawn out old-sick-lady paced frenzy but a frenzy nonetheless. This coming weekend I am heading over to Daylesford with Kristen and Melly. Saturday is all sold out but I think Merrilyn can squeeze a few more people in on Sunday if you want to come along. After the weekend I will have two new patterns to share, a sensible grown-up one and a not-so-sensible one...no prizes for guessing my favourite!

and the new toys? Well part of me hopes they might just piss people off !
