POST

Today I received a beautiful gift in the post. I have been lucky again and won another giveaway this time from the lovely and very talented Daisy Moon. If you haven't had a peek at her blog then I suggest you do. Would you like to see what I got?

How pretty. Spotty tissue and pretty ribbon.

Beautiful hand stitched flower brooch. Gorgeous soft vintage fabric and teeny tiny neat stitches.

Spotty dotty back.

Lots of buttons - did you know I LOVE buttons.

Little letter tiles that spell hand made.

Close up of the faded fabrics.

Thank you so much Mandy for the beautiful giveaway prizes that came on a day when I needed a little pick me up.

Strange Name

Quite simple really Dylan - our dog - loves to hide things around the house - especially food items. Now sometimes its one of his own treats, sometimes its a crust or a sweetie wrapper -he is a tinker. On one occasion in a mad episode of cleaning (not a favourite past time of mine) I moved the sofa low and behold I found two bones and a bagel - I immediately announced to Nellie (DD2) that it would be a fab name for a blog. So there you are the reason behind the name.

Doh in a Simpson's styleee just realised that in my blog name I have misspelt bagel - well it will have to stay as I have no intention or nowhow as to how to change my blog name. After all it has taken me two years to get around to/pluck up the courage to jump in = I don't want to spoil it now. LOL.
