I've had a good clear up!

Holiday over, back to work and school tomorrow (ugh!) but the house is clean and tidy and I've managed to get some time in my workroom.

I bought this book probably two years ago now mainly because Alice spotted that there was a kit to make the bag in it....well I finally got round to making it this weekend, I'm not so sure that Cath Kidson is all the rage now but Alice will be pleased I'm sure.

 

And another sort out in my renovation box, I acquired these lovely composition vintage dolls some time ago but they all need a bit of work to tidy them up and give them a bit of a refresh, I'm looking forward to spending a bit of time on them.

Busy stitching........

Today was the first 'non-day' in a while. That is nothing planned and nothing that had to be done by yesterday! We did have a lovely day yesterday in London, I visited the museum of childhood in Bethnal Green and Alice went to Oxford Street with friends (I owe my friend Cathi for letting me off the hook). I haven't been since it was all revamped so I wanted to see what they had done with the collection and I wasn't disappointed though I suspect they have less Antique dolls on display than they had before but a lovely exhibition all the same. And...I can't believe I forgot my camera so you will have to wait until I figure out how to download photos from my phone! http://www.vam.ac.uk/
So... I've been getting on with a bit of stitchery! I made a bag out of the little embroidery I did a week or so ago as if we haven't got enough bags in this house!! you decide which is the front and which is the back!
