Sew Delightful

Hello, and welcome!

I have had the most wonderful Easter, and am hoping that you, too, have felt the effects of God's love for you. and have perhaps had some time to reflect on your blessings......I know I have.

I wanted to share a couple of things with you........firstly, I mentioned, a few days ago, that I had some news to share with you........one piece of news was that Jonathan and Tanys, and baby Bevan were coming home.........and I can't remember what the other news was.....haaaaa!
But.......I also mentioned that there was a third bit of news......and then I forgot to tell you!
Weeeeeeell..........as it's going to be happening tomorrow, I thought I'd better get it said....haaaa!
Hope you're readin' this, Birdie ..........I have been invited, along with 3 of my closest friends, to meet and greet THE OSMONDS as they arrive in Liverpool, prior to their UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL show.....woooooohoooooo!!

We are to be given a VIP box to view the dress rehearsal, then go backstage to "meet and mingle", and have some eats with 'em.....better remember to take a bib (I've been known to dribble).......and then help  them to host a Church Fireside meeting.
Unfortunately.....sigh......sob.....sigh......Donny will not be there......sob.........
so will just have to force myself to smile, and have a good time......as long as they sing "Crazy Horses", I'll be fine....haaaa!

Okay.........next news.....yep.....there's more........
If you've been around my blog for a while, you'll know that my youngest daughter, aka Daughter #3, aka Leigh-Anne, is a talented quilter.......yep.......I taught her all she knows ;p.......but she is far and away a better, and more prolific quilter than I'll ever be.
Well, she has been sewing gorgeous creations for friends and family, and word has been passed around, and.........well, the upshot is, she's had tons of orders for her "signature" quilt, which has to be seen to be appreciated!  She also makes a whole lot of other stuff......in fact, if it can be stitched, she can do it!
After much badgering encouragement from me, and various friends, she's now opened a Facebook page, to  showcase her makes, and so people can place orders...........it would be lovely if you could pop in, and say Hello.....and say I sent ya!  She would be sooooo chuffed!
She's still in the process of putting up photos, etc., but there will be a lot more to look at, soon........I'm so proud and excited for her!!

This is an Easter bag she made for Bevan

Cute, eh?

And these were girlie ones, to order.....pretty :D

Probably won't be blogging tomorrow.....got a date....haaaaa!

See you on Tuesday...........

Hugs,
Anne-Marie x

  4. Copperknob! You withheld till last minute on purpose! Truly amazed you hadn't let it slip. While I am beyond happy for you I will admit to some of that thing called envy; console myself with the fact Donny won't be there. Sigh. Agree, love, love, love Wild Horses! I know you will enjoy on my behalf...right?!

    Will check out Leigh-Anne's page; you know I will. Fingers crossed for a good business.

    Loving the bags. Gives those Christmas stockings a run for the money.
