In Out, In Out, Shake It All About!

Well 'In' the door today came my winnings from Jacquie at Tallgrass Prairie Studio.  Earlier this week I won her giveaway for a copy of this fab book.  Woo hoo!


I've had a quick flick through and it is going to answer so many of my daft questions without anyone-else catching on to my ignorance - bonus!  If you have any questions, Nancy and I are obviously here to help x

'Out' the door went my two Goodie Swap parcels.  They are now winging their way around the globe, hopefully as quickly as possible.  I can't wait to reveal all - and now it's my turn to play the waiting game too.

I had a little trouble wrapping the second one and finding suitable packaging.  So it went from this...


... to this, classy but the perfect size!


... and then this, to disguise the box that I have now shown you - doh!


I think you should stick the music on partner, and play a game of lonesome Pass the Parcel!

Speaking of party games, we endured enjoyed an afternoon of Potty The Pirate.  Obviously, any excuse to pose, and our three are right there...


Tomorrow IKEA!

  6. What, not even Kellogs for your partner? lol Yeah, I had a meltdown last night, and had to clean my sewing area before I did anything else, so mine's hitting the post on Monday. All out of cereal though...

    Obviously the ideal pirates. I think they'd have got on well with the fairy with the fetaher boa as big as she was that we met at Dobbies today lol
