Apron Love.

The above is the result of waking up to kiss Wonderful Man goodbye when he left at 4.30am for work!

Well to be precise, it's the result of me not being able to get back to sleep after he left for work at 4:30am!

Luckily he only has to do this once a week. Get up at 4:30 I mean, not go to work once a week! lol.

I've got a bit of bread thing going on at the moment which is quite nice only I wish it would go away as I'm piling the weight on...mmmmm...homemade bread and jam....mmmmmm!

Recent crafting activity...more heart brooches.

These seem to be quite popular so I've tweaked them a little, as you do when you've made quite a few of the same thing. I'm rather pleased with these as I printed the script onto the fabric myself and I have to say I'm quite taken with it.

More hearts, one to be precise, appliqued onto...

this little utility apron.

I'm hoping this will be just right for keeping my essentials in when I'm running my next craft stall. If it's not it doesn't matter as I've found it rather useful at home already for carrying my mobile phone (which usually lives in my bra when I have no pockets) my camera ready for crafty blog photos at any given opportunity, pens, tissues the coiled up USB lead for the camera. (It's always downs stairs when I'm up and upstairs when I'm down, I should be as thin as Kate Moss really!)
The apron wasn't my idea I found it here if you fancy having a go.

More apron luuurve!

Some vintage Sanderson curtain fabric, a bit of ricrac and HeY preSTO!

Modelled beautifully by Ethel Maud.

I don't think I've introduced you to Ethel Maud before. She gets in the way a bit but I do love her so. She's very quiet and never answers back and best of all she's very obliging when you need to hang things off her instead of dropping them on the floor.

And lastly.

A sneak preview.

I'm sooooo excited about this, I'm almost beside myself!

Gosh! I hope you won't be disappointed after this build up. I'm just so pleased with how this turned out... but that's for next time.

Thanks for keeping me company, you keep me going.
