Something Lovely In The Post.....

Good morning everyone.

I hope you are all well.

I've been feeling a little sorry for myself lately.....I have had Pharyngitis and now have the most horrendous temperatures/headaches and an awful cough but I was cheered up last week when a lovely parcel arrived from the amazingly talented and kind hearted Jenny from Winnibriggs House who had posted a tutorial for making ear warmers/headband and had hosted a giveaway for the materials to make one.



I was very lucky to be one of those to receive a package which included two pieces of fleece and matching Velcro fastenings...perfect colours for me Jenny...!!! I also received a lovely handwritten note and two lovely brooches, one felt, for my crafting interests....which is now adorning one of my craft bags and the other a beautiful vintage heart brooch from Jenny's collection. 

Thank you Jenny....you are so very kind and I promise I will get round to making my earmuff/headband as soon as things settle down here at home....I have an idea that I can wear it for my trips to Twickenham for my beloved rugby.....



Thank you for taking the time to stop by.

I really do appreciate your visits and lovely, encouraging comments.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Finally....Some Stitching To Share!!!

Good afternoon everyone.

I hope you are all keeping well.

So I am being very good and as promised I haven't started any new crafting projects. 

I have completed my first four knitted squares for January for the KAL 2017 that I am taking part in at my local knitting shop....I am told I will have one finished blanket by Christmas....Mmmm, we shall see. I will collect the next pattern for February's four squares at my class on Saturday.

I have spent some time adding a few stitches to 

The Holly Fairy


So you can see I have made a little progress.

I have also managed to read 7 books towards my 2017 Good Reads Reading Challenge. I have set myself a target of 24 books this year. Less than the previous two years but probably a bit more of a realistic goal. You can see my progress and the books that I have read so far in my sidebar. You can also see what I am currently reading.


Anyway I must get on....


Thank you for taking the time to stop by.

I really do appreciate your visits and lovely, encouraging comments.

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.
