Show and tell.

Not much to tell here, the weather is yuk , children back in school, I have a slow cooker (yay) and I am cream crackered because I keep staying up stupidly late to complete the next part of a little craft project that has embedded itself in my already cluttered mind and refuses to toddle off until I have done it all , resistance is futile I have to do it .
 I am hoping it will be done in about a fortnight  , its called Little Ethel  and its needlefelted and thats all the info I can give you folks .

As the title suggests I thought I may do some showing , I have an evergrowing pile of vintagey fabrics which I love but am doing nothing with at the moment , I am however learning to use the sewing machine as i would like to turn them into cushions,  patchwork thingies and bags ,but I have sneaky feeling that will be a long way off !

 This was given to me by a very kind crafty friend , I would love to turn it into a top / tunic kind of thing .

 A pair of curtains that cost 50p.

 Beautifully faded , I love this print , my eldest has the duvet cover on her bed .

 My absolute favourite , and I really want to turn it into a dress , I recently very wisely invested, my pennies in a vintage fabric dress from this clever  Miss , you can read more about her  here . Will post a piccie of said dress soon - i love it !!!! Have lots more fabric to show another day .

Two new pretties ( well I think so , hubby may beg to differ !) in the home ,

Below is an isak tea towel that is way too lovely to get soggy so  framed it in an old flea market find and I am delightedly happy with the result . I did request approval form my 2 eldest to put this up in my living room - would they be embarrassed when their friends came over, with ladies boobies on view , but they thought the whole thing hilarious as do many who frequent my home - cannot think why ?

Am off now to put away the 2 boxes of christmas decs that have been sat in my bathroom for the last 10 days accumalating odd bathroom type items within them ie empty loo rolls , toothpaste tubes - not really what i want haging on my tree in the next festive season .
