St Ives

I took a trip to St Ives yesterday It was cold and cloudy I took this pretty picture of seagulls.
  I enjoyed window shopping and wandering around the craft gallery I bought two pretty handmade pink buttons and had a pasty lunch.

Shiny Green

Gold Leaf

Work in Progress.

This is a bag that I am making for my youngest daughter Fiona she chose the material when we had a look around the ABAKHAN store in Wales few weeks ago.

I hope she likes it. I just need to add the lining, strap and fastener. It has a lovely leaf pattern design on the fabric.

I am hoping to take clearer photos of my bags I have ordered a tripod, which should get rid of shadow, it was a lot cheaper than I thought.

My bag was featured on Foksy Friday again!

My bag Orange Flower was featured on this blog.    http://violetstone-rainbowhat.blogspot.com/ 

The man who played the wolfman came to call!



Spencer Craig and husband



We are in my daughter's and her partners house in Prestatyn Wales. Craig met this man Spencer Wilding at his job in a resort nearby and brought him around to meet us. He starred in the Wolfman with Anthony Hopkins. He said to google his name he told us he played a part in a Harry Potter movie and other films. He said is 6ft 7in on a good day Craig is tall 6ft 2in. We shook hands I asked to take this photo and my husband is sitting down in the background.

Fabric Bundles



I am in Wales now seeing my family no sewing for nearly two weeks. Today we visited a ABAKHAN store in Mostyn a few miles away. I stocked up on rolls of fabric at only 60p a bundle and a bag full of cottons and buttons. There is lots of fabrics, wool, crafts, haberdashery and workshops.We enjoyed lunch there in the coffee house. It was a flying visit we will be back again soon for longer next time.
