Half Term

Half Term has gone in a flash.


We started the week with a lovely visit to Lytham.
(Penny nearly jumped in the fountain, luckily she was on a short lead and my Daughter was quick)


It was glorious, just what we needed!


I've also made another animal. He'll be going on my Folksy shop this week.


The biggest event of the half term break was a trip to Alderhey Childrens Hospital. My son was having treatment for CRMO. We had three days at the hospital, fuelled by junk food (anything to make him happy).
Back home on Friday night.


Saturday was the day to finish off another new animal, my whale.
The debate was barnacles or no barnacles?


Sunday and we all got some extra time in bed (Clocks going back)


But we also had time for a family walk!!
(not sure how happy that made the children)


We headed off to Langden Brook


Penny had a great time, lots of puddles and mud.


After my Sons hospital treatment he has lots of new pains, this time in his ankles, so we didn't walk far.


The next job is to gather together enough animals to put on a display at the local Library.

September into October

Well its been a while since I did any Blogging, but I've been busy.


Lots of sewing has gone on!


The animals above have been packed up ..... 


and taken to Lancaster.



They are now part of the Wintertide exhibition at Arteria in Lancaster.
I'm so excited to be part of something so special.


In other (not so exciting) news, Me and Penny have attempted to do more walking.
I'm thinking we need some all weather gear because we've had some pretty wet walks so far.


My lovely little garden still has a bit of colour.


And finally, after 9 1/2 years of pink curtains in our living room (previous owners curtains)
I've made some new ones!! 
The window is extra wide, so I've 'adjusted' two pairs of curtains to make one pair of BIG curtains.
