snail/spiral skirt

these skirts facinate me,I have never worked out how to cut them,so I went hunting in charity shops and found a really lovely ,very full one.I put it on the dress dummy and pinned garden fleece to it following the seam lines,this is the pattern I got....must try it soon

I wonder whose pawprints these are

I so believe these belong to bundle.....

new toys

these are my new toys,the ong silverything says it is a drawnthread tool on the handle.I just love the unpicker that unfolds like a pen knife,I aquired them both last saturday.the scissors were my christmas pressie from philip,they are so beautiful.I prefer to collect things that have been used well rather than the expensive silver stuff for show
I use all my old stuff regularly

today is bundles arrival day,hard to believe she has lived with us for a year now
this photo was taken a wek or so ago
bundle likes to make herself a dugout by digging in the gravel,the grass or my plant pots and lying in the hole she made

this is in memeory of dear thistle ,who was a cousin to thimble and pooka,tissy as she was know died on may4 after a short illness,miss you tiss
