Turning one thing into another
When Anth and I went to York back in November I bought some Cath Kidston hankies (though I really wouldn't describe them as hankies - more of a neckerchief. I love that word, neckerchief! My children would cringe if they heard me use it and laugh at me. Hmm, it is the sort of word my mother would use in her very english precise voice. Neck-er-chief. I must be turning into her. Mmm. )
Anyway, I bought them with the idea of turning them into square pillowcases. I first made the red one for the Christmas Eve new pillowcase tradition but then got poorly so no sewing for me.
But last week I managed to pull out my sewing machine and made 3 more,yes it was a bit of a marathon but I paced myself (the bird one is folded on the bed.) I think my favourite is the new blue one which I got in Totnes the other week, but I have looked on Cath's website and found these two
which will go onto my wish list. Sigh...I have a very long wish list.. but hey this week I'm not thinking about what I haven't got, only what I have got, and people let me tell you I am blessed.
Blessed and grateful.
