Button watch!

It's another gloriously sunny spring like day here in Essex, thank goodness for that! We finally have some (ok, 2!) daffodils open!

I had a lovely Mother's Day here on Sunday - Robyn's a very clever 16 month old, she ordered me a beautiful bunch of flowers!! Colin mentioned that he had wanted to get me something else, a button watch I'd been oogling on Folksy, but the seller was away so the shop was closed. So I emailed the seller, the lovely Claire, and she opened the shop so that I could purchase the watch, yay!! I paid for it Sunday and it arrived yesterday (Tuesday) and I couldn't be happier with it. It's rare for me to find something that I really want to have, often when I'm asked what I'd like for a Birthday or Christmas present I end up requesting a dvd or book as I don't often want jewellery etc. So, thank you to Claire of Black Cats Whiskers for making my day!!

I'm cracking on well with Robyn's patchwork quilt, I need to think about the centre panel now, a trip to Barley Lands on Friday might help with that. So I'm going to try my hand at making some ruffle strips and fabric flowers, wish me luck!!
