Bunting

Rosa's bunting has been finished for a while but without a camera for a week I was unable to photograph............My camera was found which made me one very happy girl. It is so hard to get a good photo of bunting as it is so loooooong but you get the idea.

SUNDAY STASH # 8

My friend Vicky is getting stuck into more screen printing. She surprised me last week with a couple of printed fabrics which she printed girly silhouettes on. So pretty and soooo clever. Thanks Vick, perfect timing for this weeks stash envy. I love them!

Happy Birthday Rosebud

Today was a very special day. Our little girl turned two. Happy Birthday gorgeous girl! you bring so much fun and joy to our family, we love you so, so much.

She had a lovely party with close friends, thank you all for the lovely gifts, Rosa is one very lucky girl.

Rosa squealed when she saw her cake this morning, it was worth all the hours Paul and I put into making it.

The little cradle we gave her, she just loved it and especially loved her quilt to wrap her dollies in. Made from from last weeks Sunday Stash.

SUNDAY STASH # 7

I would love to show you some of my newest stash, however, silly me lost my camera at Charlie's sports carnival on Friday...boo hoo, I'm really sad! especially since he won and it was his first ever race. I really hope someone hands it in. In the meantime here are some resin buttons I bought at the Sydney Stitches and Craft earlier this year. I really love the colours, haven't quite put them to good use yet.

SUNDAY STASH #6

A couple of Amy Butler fat quarters were one of my finds in Bowral on the week end. My Place is a gorgeous little shop which is a must see if you are ever in the area. It's Rosa's birthday on Sunday so I'm thinking of a doll size quilt for her dolly cradle which I have not even bought yet...

And this I just absolutely LOVE......it's a pillow cover with hand embroidered animals and girls. I think is was made by hand in India in a very cheap hessian type fabric from a shop called Monkey Monky ????? Very colourful and so cute.

Beautiful Bowral

This week end was spent with our beautiful friends in Bowral. Simon and Susie and their two gorgeous children Jack and Isabella moved there almost 12 months ago, we have finally made the short trek inland to see why they rave about their fabulous tree change. The kids had the BEST ever time, enjoying the simple things in life......lots of fun, laughter, exploring and adventure was had by all and I can honestly say I rarely see my children that pooped from soooo much play. Their property is so lovely with amazing gardens, sweeping green lawns, hedges, flowers, a pool, a pond and a ride on mower just to top it all off. It was really nice to "stop and smell the roses" (or should I say magnolias) and slowly take it all in. While the big boys were out playing golf, we ladies lounged about in our pjs reading home mags, chatting and watching the kids play........what a perfect Sunday morning........

Harvey and Charlie squirting Jack....yes that's right no water restrictions...

Climbing the huge scrap heap...

Harvey found a few tiny fairy lights which he treasured and carried around with him all day. He was facinatied by them.

One very tired Harvey.

Bye baby BUNTING

Yesterday I started working on some bunting for Rosa's room. I love the rounded edges, Prints Charming style. Feels good to be using up some of my older fabrics and some new ones as well. I will hopefully post my finished product on Sunday. I am off to Bowral to visit some friends this weekend so hopefully my Sunday Stash will be something new.....shouldn't be too hard to shop in Bowral.
