I can see my house from here!

Last night I built a house for the Bee Blessed ladies...


It's a lovely Spring-like scene that many in the UK would love to see right now, but with snow or a hosepipe-ban not much chance of the lawns being this beautiful any time soon!

And that's not my only house, ooh get me!

Today the lovely postlady handed me my Summersville winnings!


Lucie has challenged me to make something, (that ideally won't make her sob into her hands - my words, not hers!) in time for FQ Retreat...  I'll try my best, I have an idea or two.



I had already pre-ordered a couple of charm packs, and I am fearing those will definitely not be enough; the prints, Lu's first for Moda are beautiful and fun, and I can't quite bring myself to ruin their perfect stackiness just yet!

  7. Agree with S & K. If you brag giveaways, we brag sewing summit. Truce?!

  8. Cute house block! And good luck with your FQ project - I'm sure if there's sobbing, it'll be over the loveliness of the piece. :-)

  23. I heard from several people in the UK about the hosepipe ban.
    Can I trade you a wee river or two (that never used to be here, but the rain has to go somewhere)? I would trade anything to s-t-o-p t-h-e (stinkin') r-a-i-n over here.
