Ahh my family together in one place!

Michaels first birthday was a low key affair. Jenni was most chuffed that my Mum got a taxi, train and bus then car ride just to see him on his special day.

Here are a few of my latest makes...

I have been a busy girl - socks, crochet houses, chicken cushion(a gift for a friend) and some of my bootsies. Have great plans to do mush more as soon as possible, as some very nice people on MSE have kindly let me use their patterns. What would I do without all my buddies on there?

Serena's wedding

have been making favours and table centre pieces for Serena. The wedding has a Mad Hatter theme and everything has to be transportable by car to Scotland. I have made 7 tiny tables with knitted food and handmade tiny top hats, the whole thing is the size of a dinner plate.

Its May!! ...

I cannot believe its May already. Just finishing Serena's wedding stuff then Im going to start on Christmas. Hoping to have a craft stall at the local church at Christmas. Going to make lots of my little houses too and put them on Folksy to try and keep our finances healthy.

Don't know what I would do without my friends from the Old Style Board on MSE. I have saved a fortune with their help and they are like a truss - a constant source of support - especially Mardatha.

Time flys....

Michael is nearly 1... and Im nearly, well that would be telling! Gareth is 30 next week. I cannot fathom how we suddenly got to the end of February.

Am keeping busy making stuff for the local donkey sanctuary Spring fair. I have a box of things made so far. Lots of cross stitch and crochet brooches. I just hope it all raises lots of funds for them.

Jenni moves to her new shiny house this week, no more damp and cold for her and Michael. At last she can make this house into a home. Looking forward to seeing all her pictures on the walls. If I can actually find anywhere near to get a ball of white wool I can finish the throw I made for the boys bed.
Here he is on the rocking horse I got him for Xmas, I just added a leather saddle and reins! Not bad for 8.00 pounds.

What have I been upto....Looking after little man and loving it!
