Well Saturday was a treat - sunshine, blue skies and most importantly no rain :)
The boys went off to play badminton together, MrVV went off to take part in his band recording and I was left to my own devices :) As it was nice I cycled into town to get a few bits & pieces. I treated myself to a magazine - this months Good Homes Mag. My goodness its not often I get an extra mag these days but this one was well worth it - lots of articles, plenty of colour and inspiration.
In the afternoon I settled down in my sewing room - I wanted to get another ragdoll finished. Her she is with her friend;
Am already planning on making another one - there's a chance of selling some stuff @ a craft fair in May and I've been offered the chance to put items into a local shop too :)
Back to the Good Homes mag ;
Apart from the CK article there's one house in there that wouldn't look out of place in blogland;
Loving the random knitted blanket
A girl can never have enough bags ;)
I love this dresser too.
The weather today has not been great - woke to the sound of rain hammering at the windows. As MrVV was out again today, the boys & I have kept ourselves amused indoors.
Little son is doing a project in History about the 1960's and the Beatles so we've been busy contacting grandparents & friends to ask them some questions for his homework. We've also had various Beatles cd's on full blast - had forgotten how good some of their stuff is. Have also been googling information so he now knows more about the Fab Four.
Have been continuing with my knitting - progress now charted in my sidebar ;)
Lastly I've been playing with my layout & header. I took the header pic to go on some invitations I need to send to family to my birthday tea-party next month and thought that Jane, Rabbit & Orange would make a new spring header too :)
BTW - Fridays concert was quite good - little sons band of course were excellent. However I do wish they'd heat our church as I was frozen stiff by the end of the evening!!
