acing against time for the easter celebrations that I have not even thought about yet and it is already Good Friday tomorrow! Still there are always some more fabric flowers to be made.....never mind the housework and the needs of the teenagers and family, just take yourself off to some little corner and cut more petals out!

fabric flowers

eally inspired by flowers popping up everywhere have made a load of stiffened fabric flowers. Have used some lovely fabrics found at our very well stocked local quilting shop and tried to keep the colours tonally the same. Cannot wait to make some more now...just need to get the stiffness right in the stems....a bit floppy at the moment! A huge vase with loads of them would look great!
beautiful colours

ceramics from South Africa
ay du Toit is the mother of one of my best friends, my long time suffering allotment partner Nicky, or Nicolette as she was christened back in her south Africa days.....Gay does not ever seem to stop producing beautiful ceramics, painted and decorated in the most wonderful colours and designs....and these boobie pots are her latest creations! I love the serene but slight amused expressions on their faces! Arn't they gorgeous!

seem to have been totally swamped by the party of the decade- my parents-in-law 50th wedding anniversary! so the only crafting was the making of alot of cupcakes for the do and an awful lot of trying on of various outfits! It was a great party and Brian and Maureen had a wonderful time.....


tunning colours at Borough Market on the 5th March, Nick's birthday, that and the amazing spring colours that are emerging everywhere are certainly lifting the gloom of a prolonged winter!

attoos have been absorbing my brain all day at work...have now finished this latest epic.....really liked the blue/green colour against the strong reds and browns...might be too much for the voters though!!!
efinitely finding it harder to find something interesting to paint every day but have not yet succumbed to cheating! here are some entries in no particular order! not all of them are worthy of sharing!
