Holiday Freebie

I am officially on holiday :-)

This morning I had a haircut and went shopping for new make-up and pyjamas and I spent the afternoon putting holiday notices in my shops...I decided to leave them open so people can still order if they like, but I won't be posting any parcels until I'm back, which is 6th October!

Tonight John and I are off for a celebration dinner with a group of friends (3 birthdays in one week!) and then on to the comedy club in Brighton, and tomorrow we'll be packing and then driving down to Dorset....we're so excited :-)

I've decided to have a complete break and am not taking any sewing with me *gasp* but I did manage to squeeze in a little bit of sewing today, and I made a freebie prize ....

SO if you'd like to enter & try and win an owl brooch just leave a comment on this post ...I will pick a winner when I come home, so you have a whole week to enter.

See you later alligators!

    Oh Sarah, he is so cute and reminds me of my childhood in the 70's. Where did you get the fabric??

  2. Have a lovely trip! And how is it possible it's nearly October? I read your return date and thought 'Blimey, that's a nice long holiday' - but of course, it's only a week - eeeek!
