Enjoying the view at the top of Scolty Hill. Laura is standing on some stone plinth.

Not only do we have a new mini-quilt for Laura (to match her big one, which, yes WAS finished, last October), I have been doing some sewing, taking apart charity shop kilts and turning them into cushion covers. I should be on that SuperScrimpers show.

Thank you Oma!!

Laura's lovely little quilt just came in the mail yesterday, making her very happy.

New Shoes!

Laura's been living in wellies for about 6 months, but a fun jaunt round some charity shops finds some Winnie and Tigger shoes. Here she is gettign acquainted with the Lion at the Cowdray Hall in Aberdeen. The dreamy effect is my bad phone camera

They are watching you

I found this piece of paper in the back of the car, folded.

On the outside it read:
Spy
Car Jurny
Claire birthday party

On the inside it read:
Laura play with two little people. Claire hold present. Mum consentrate on driving-no smileing. Claire + Laura talking. Claire play toy giraff. Mum move gear and turn radio.

YIKES!

I didn't mean that short!!! Thank goodness it is winter and I can wear a hat on my head when I am out in public for the next two weeks.

I might use it to my advantage and start shouting orders like a major general, run this household like a military operation, whip these lazy recruits into shape. ooh, I just need some tassled epaulettes.
