Pretty Special!

hi..

i can't believe it's already friday!

i don't really know what has happened to this week

it' just flown by...

and here we are at the end of it

again!

i started the week off with a few dreamy blues

well,

i'm ending it in the pink

with two pretty special fabrics

which were whispering in my ear...

make me into very cute cushions

for a girl somewhere.

having ignored them for a few weeks,

wanting to savour this fabric and it's sweetness first,

i could put them off no longer

&

got out my ricrac to match

&

a length of pink bobbley bits

and sewed them all into these...

these cute little vespas

are already to go...

vroom, vrooming in amongst the pink polka dots

big and small

orange and pink...

sewing in the bobbles

all the way around was a bit tricky...

but lots of fun

&

i just love sewing anything pink

which i think goes back to having four boys

and being surrounding by blue,

with only one daughter,

who, of course, i couldn't make wear pink all the time..could i?

she tells me now

she didn't really like her pink painted room...

but i must say i did

and she didn't say very much at the time.

oh, that's right...

i painted it when she was away on holiday!

{i must have been a bad, bad mum!!}

i hope she doesn't feel scarred for life

by pinkness.

although i am absolutely certain

she'd love these cushions

and the vespas and spots, ricrac and bobbley deliciousness...

aren't you?

i hope you have much deliciousness

planned for your weekend...

and knowing there'll be blue skies here

helps a lot!
