Annabelle friend Sophie picking lettuces.

I hope to work on this small bag today. I’m back making Annabelle I love this wee bunny she pulls at my heart strings ; may be because she brings back so many happy memories from my child hood that was a very very happy one.  You can find her maker Michelle at xstitchalley.blogspot.com.au I’m making a small carry bag for a dear wee friend in Switzerland who is 4 for her Xmas present. I’m using the sleeve of a man’s felted jacket!!!!

You can see the man's sleeve in this photo, it is made of felted wool soft but firm to touch and lovely to work on. I have replaced the black sleeve buttons with little blue bow buttons.

to make the bag out of.

I have to share my latest sewing acquisition that has just arrived??????

New thimble holder I do not collect thimbles but I have over 60 of them???????

Hubby brought this home from work a out of date aircraft  blade holder!!!!!! was been thrown out but he thought about my thimbles, they are tiny holes only big enough for narrow thimbles but I can put my ones I use regularly in there as well as the silver ones I use to use for quilting till I pocked holes in them?????? See up close of one of the thimbles that has a wee cap on it with a pair of scissors that work!!!!!!

Up close and personal??????? see scissors in bottom left hole!!!!!

Tray needs a good clean as it is years old and is covered in grease and grim just hope it looks OK after I clean it?????? May be will do that today also.

Last week I showed you that beautiful silk sateen My girlfriend sent me from NZ well in my excitement of showing you I forgot to show you the silk scarves she sent me also that were her mums I’m so spoilt.

Lots and lots of motivation here, if I only had more time!!!!!!!
