Hello! I hope you've been having a happy winter week! Here are some of the things I've been enjoying in mine. Knitting clothes for toy rabbits... much quicker than knitting them for me and I'm sure that the bunny likes being cosy...
Seeing Daisy playing with the soft blocks I showed you in my last post - she loved them sooo much!!
Baking bread mmmmm there's nothing quite like the delicious smell of fresh baked bread is there?
Reading this sweet book - I've heard of it for ages and was curious about the quirky title, and I loved the cover design especially the postmark and stamp bit, but have only just got round to reading it...I'm so glad I did.
Cutting into these scrumptious dotty fabrics to make something new which I'll be showing you soon...
And sooo enjoying my spring bulbs...another present from xmas...this is a wonderful little postcard-y decorated container with the deepest blue sweetly scented hyacinths - a bit of heaven on the table in my studio, delicious wafts of scent while I am working at the computer (like now!)
What have
you been enjoying this week? Thank you for visiting me here, for your sweet comments and a
big welcome to new readers who have just found me here!! Have a happy week! Back soon xx
Helen, you do have the loviest plant containers!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the rabbit, sooo cute, it certainly looks a happy bunny!
Lovely to see little Daisy playing with her blocks. :)
Looking forward to seeing what you make with that gorgeous fabric.
As always a really happy post!!

Such a cheerful winter post! The hyacinths are lovely! I have never heard of the book you are reading but it looks like something I would love to read. Off to check Amazon.
ReplyDeleteHi Helen, a great cheery winter post to cheer a very dull January day. Thank you. One great thing for today though- when over at my Mum and Dad's...I saw my 1st snowdrop of the year..they are so late this year.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thursday,

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed looking at your book in WH Smith today , I feel that may be popping into my Amazon basket later :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Helen, I love the bunnies clothes, so cute, warm and cozy. (and button) I love the smell of homemade bread and there is nothing like it. I made gingersnaps yesterday and that's a great smell too. I put in crystalized ginger bits which gave the recipe an extra punch. Very curious to see what's up with the polka dots.....love love dots!!!! Enjoy, xoRobin❤
ReplyDeleteThose sweet little hands holding the blog...I am in love! And I cannot wait to see what you'll create from those wonderful fabrics - I hope we'll see it soon?
ReplyDeleteHave the happiest weekend soon (oh, yet an another week gone!)!
Yours,
