The bride was beautiful

 

An absolutely fabulous day and the weather was unbelievable compared to Friday. The whole day was great, everything was so perfect, really really perfect the venue is gorgeous. To anybody in Sheffield who is thinking of getting married in Ecclesall woods my advice is DO IT!!!! It is worth it

                                                        A guest of honour in his finery

Alicia outside the camper van that took us to Ecclesall woods and then took her and Joe to the Fox and Goose near Barlow (another great venue) where we had a hog roast (yummy) 

All three of my beautiful girls a very tall and sophisticated looking Holly thanks partly to a pair of six inch heels, a very beautiful and happy bride and a very pregnant Sara just three weeks off giving birth to her little bundle. I was so glad we have got to the end of the weekend without her giving birth lol she's gone home now so that is a midwifery godsend  I must say I'll be surprised if she goes three weeks but you never know

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST THE HAPPY COUPLE

THANK YOU ALICIA FOR BEING A BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTER AND THANK YOU JOE FOR TAKING HER ON!!!!!!!!!    ;-) xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have been sewing!!!

Today I decided to start a bedspread for the bed to match the curtains I had a nice lady make a few years ago I was going to do it when the curtains had been made but I just love sewing (not)!! so like many things in my life I packed away the leftover material and pushed it to the back of the wardrobe lol
When Alicia said she wanted to get ready for her wedding day from my house and that the photographer would be taking piccys I thought OMG I need to decorate which I did and then yesterday I thought sort that bedspread out so with 6 days to go I have started it!!

 I have even matched flowers on the seems and am showing two of them so you know its not a fluke lol

 So all I have to do now is buy lining because I cant find ALL the yards and yards of lining I had left over, must have misplaced it in the move and get it finished before saturday lunch time NO PRESSURE THEN ha ha I'll be back to show the finished thingy in all its glory xx

LOVE THAT MELT POT

 These are two of the roses mum and I made with the melt pot and some truly ancient  thick embossing powder which we had not used, like that NEVER happens lol

The first is a beautiful black sparkly one and the second is actually pink the mould we used was one from Chloe's creative cards that I bought when we were at a show and was told "you will never use that" like mothers do then decide they love it and want one themselves isn't it fabulous but I cant find them on her website (boo hiss) and I NEED MORE OF THEM ALL DIFFERENT SHAPES!!!!! 
This is addictive pouring the melted powder into the mould then tipping it out love it and even more gratifying is cracking off the excess off the spatula ha ha xx

what a star

Link has been to Graves Park today with Lissy and Joe. They entered him in the veteran's class dog show!! AND HE CAME SECOND!!!!!
                    Wayhey Linky Loo GO GO Linky,even with his missing eye which is why he is now known as Winky Linky Loo ha ha I know you shouldn't knock the afflicted but he does ask for it, he really does.
So the moral of the tale is .......BEAUTY IS IN THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER...........
      and his mummy coz to me he is handsome whether two eyes or one eye xx
