What a little sweetheart this is Milly !.
She is my favourite creation at the moment.
I used some Mohair fabric gave it an aged loved and worn look. Her body I made from my mountain of Cabbages & Roses fabric . To finish her I added some Vintage lace and Wool Vintage blanket. She is now currently awaiting a suitable applicant for Adoption !
I’m hoping today will be better than yeasterday,
the Sun in out so I’m hopeful.
I’m being blighted by my ever prescent ailment (Fibromyalgia),
its as much a part of me as my creating sad as it sounds.
I will try and make something quickly before it takes over ahhhhhhh!
Must dash if that is at all possible…

Life has been hectic the last few weeks. My sister has been really ill, to see her this way really affected me, she has always been the stronger of us. Thank God she is well on the road to recovery. It’s my turn to be ill, women being prone to certain things, I had to have a scan waiting for result’s, I’m trying to keep busy with my site. Also I got a lovely tin can, the kids call it this! (caravan), I’ve had a couple of trips away to de-stress. Both times it poured down, its lovely and cosy so I didn’t mind too much.
I sent this Fairy off to Switzerland she arrived safely and I’m so thrilled she is totally adored by her new owner. I always have more of a thrill from peoples reactions to there buys than to just having a sale. I’ve been busy thinking up new shabby chic stuff I’m sure I’m going to be a busy girl.
Just one more I loved this to bits all handmade, the cherub is a vintage copy transfered to Antique cotton. The bag is lined in velvet and filled with scented rose buds again the new owner loved it.
Well I’m totally whacked and my bed is calling me, so good night all God Bless

Hi all who visit,
Whilst taking some pics of my new vintage finds in my garden today, thought I’d take some of the flowers that are the most stunning blue(not sure what they are), and I managed to catch a bee in mid flight !

I’ve had my new sewing machine for 2 weeks still haven’t used it. These are some of our neighbours, we had to rescue a lamb the other day it had wandered away from its mum, poor little thing had been crying for awhile before we realized , all ended well after a run around the field to catch it, mother and baby are doing just fine !!
