Tiger spotted at local steam rally !!!!

 Who would have thought it? 

A very cute little tiger was seen prowling around at the Vintage Steam Rally at Nostell Priory last weekend. 


Despite the vile weather last weekend, Sunday afternoon wasn't too bad so off we popped for a bit of vintage steam at lovely Nostell Priory (have I mentioned the fact I used to work there - yes Twiggy a thousand times at least :)

This week has gone by in a blur, I've had my first cold of the school year - urgh!!  Been busy, busy at work and trying desperately to declutter the house, I've even signed up to the flylady website !!

Spent a little time at the lottie this weekend pulled up the old pea and bean plants and picked lots of lovely apples that are now in the freezer.


This is the apron that my lovely Mum made for me, isn't it pretty?  It's a proper crossover back Grandma style one too !!!

Have any of you started - (whispering here) - Christmas crafting yet?

I'm dying to get started on some cross stitch but I'm trying to finish off my mammoth project before I start any more. 

Righto, time to make a cuppa, get the stitching out and settle down for Downton Abbey. 

Another busy week ahead.

Take care
Twiggy x

Well I"ve finally taken the plunge...................

After drooling over many blogs for months now I've decided to finally take the plunge, so here is my new dawn.
Hence the beautiful sunrise above as photographed by Mr Twiggy through our bedroom window. (I'm sure I'll be including a lot of his pics, hope he doesn't expect commision).

I love crafting and have ever since I was a little girl and spent hours playing with my mums button tin (which I've inherited) and amused my self by making dresses for my dollies - even though I'd cut their hair and given them green felt tip highlights. Punk Tiny Tears - I should have marketed this idea !!

Hope you enjoy my work as much as I've enjoyed others who are a daily inspiration to me.

I hope to share favourite blogs, books and anything and everything with you, so enough off my blithering on and watch this space...............................................
