Sew Much Fun

Yesterday the good fortune continued with DJ having another nice long nap.  So I got all excited while the sewing machine was still out & picked up this blanket.  Well it wasn't a blanket then but it is now.   I bought this softest fleece before DJ was born & had bought some yellow satin ribbon to put on around the edge.  I had pins in it all over & it's been sitting there for about 5 months waiting for me to sew it on.  Well I did - rather badly but it's on!  It's still the softest squishiest fleece I ever did meet & will make a cosy blanket for any of us!  lol  

 After sewing that & taking out the mammoth pile of pins I had no where to put them!  Bother!  So next stop was the box in the cupboard that had the blue turtle in it.  I had cut out this turtle probably about 18 months ago when I made BJ's & another for my sister.  But my poor pin turtle got left at the time.  So that was a bonus as in no time at all I had him all sewn up & totally pinned up.  Woohoo!  I did enjoy that little sewing marathon yesterday!  I wonder when I will ever get a chance to do so much in a day again.  

 This morning I spent helping my mum with her sale at the shop she has finally sold.  Yay!  So the next couple of weeks will be a bit tied up with extra time spent helping her do clean up & packing & moving I guess.  

This afternoon however we have had a lovely day in the garden having a picnic.  BJ does so enjoy a picnic. It was a good time to be silly & play & enjoy the summer .  

Fairy Bread anyone?  A quick emergency picnic snack which was obviously enjoyed by BJ.  

A bit of bike riding around the garden is always in order.  

Shhhh...  I don't think you are allowed to dink anyone really so don't tell....

Ooops...  & no helmuts!   Love the Weekend!  Hope yours is just as sunny, funny & happy!
