Pretty Threads And Hearts....

Thank you so much for your lovely sweet comments on my little shop makes, I am really happy that a couple of my pretties are now for sale in the most glamorous of Shabby Chic shops, it really is so nice for all of you to be part of the journey. I know there are many of you who maybe think you could have a go at selling your wonderful makes from pretty stores, I say go for it.

For the moment it is working well. Anyway, I don't want my blog to be all about The Shop, shopping, yes ;) but wanted to thank you for your encouraging comments.


Do any of you go a little ga ga over pretty threads, I picked these beautiful colours up very cheaply, and I love them :) I wonder if any of you are like me, and creep off to a secret place to photograph all manner of things, I mean a husband peering into a room with his wife kneeling and doing her best to take a pretty photograph of threads would get you quietly closing the door behind you. Actually I think he is used to it by now ;) When he or one of the children sees me creeping off with something in my pocket and my faithful camera, I get sighs of leave her to it, it shall be a Blog thing :)





I mean you all understand the need to want to take a pretty photograph of threads don't you.





And a couple of my WIP, I love sparkly buttons :)








I adore the pretty Tanya Whelan fabric which I know some of you Bloggers are enjoying playing with. I think I shall buy some in the pink too.


Well, I had actually better get on and use the pretty threads. I have been cutting out some pretty hearts to make. I don't know about you but hearts are a fiddly little number for me to make. I find those pesky corners a real little nuisance, I am too lazy to hand sew them, yet am quite particular about those corners, I like them round and symmetrical. So much ironing, clipping of corners etc and they do resemble a pretty heart, and anyway I think a little wonkiness adds to the charm ;)





Happy Heart Making :)
