Happy New Year

Its about time I posted on my blog again, it seems to have whizzed by since my last posting in August, which was about our new chickens.  They are doing well by the way, and we are just waiting patiently for an egg.  I rather thought they may have blessed us with one for Christmas Day, but nope, we are still waiting.

I have just invested in a new sewing machine, as during my Christmas rush of orders, bits started to fall off of my old one and it was a constant battle to keep it going.

I have found a bit of time to play in the last few days, which is what I enjoy doing most.  Experimenting with fabrics and lace and adding bits and bobs.  Nothing is safe when I am having one of those moments and the latest victim was a pendant that I still had for sale.  I had made it earlier in the year and had hung it from a ball chain.  I took this off and experimented with placing it on  a lanyard style hanging instead and I am rather pleased with the finished piece.

I shall be popping this in my Folksy shop shortly Pants & Paper Shop This Way.

I hope you have all had a fabulous year and wish you all a very HAPPY NEW YEAR.
