Another year older

On Monday I celebrated another birthday but it is really getting to a point where it's no longer a celebration but a reminder that another year has passed and I haven't made much of a dent in my fabric stash, in truth it probably increased.

I was very spoilt, Brett and Lachlan gave me a new sewing chair. I've been covetting one of these for a few years and luckily the craft show last weekend was the perfect time to get one. Thank you to my two precious boys xxx

My online group "Friends in Stitching" gave me a fabulous little bag with plenty of pockets and zippered pockets plus some little extras. De was the maker and she chose very well.

I loved the little zipper pull

My gorgeous friend Helen surprised me with a scrumptious white chocolate mud cake and my very own bundle of Basically Hugs. Tilly made me the green and gold band and Molly decorated the cake with bunting.

The cake didn't last long at all as I had to share it with my boys.

Thank you Helen and girls, you are all very special to me x

Talking of Helen she's announced a Christmas Stitching Day in November, hope many of you can join us there, it's always lots of fun.
