Monthly Makes

Normal service is being resumed today as my course

has finished although I have got my final piece to finish

which I'll show you when it's done.

I've also been ill this week and for the first time in 

goodness knows how many years I've been on anti-biotics,

so I have been watching a lot of daytime TV which I never do

usually do.

I have to admit, and I know some of you will disagree

 but

 I'm hooked on Loose women. 

For those who don't know it it's a morning chat show

which is like having a coffee

and a gossip with some out spoken, and at times, outrageous 

women who have been around the block a couple of times.

I's great fun.

Anyway I have managed to do a couple of other things this month

other than my Arty stuff.

This cushion is for one of my great nieces for Christmas in the colour

of bedroom, I just have to make the pad now.

I have to add she wasn't named after Kiera Knightly as she wasn't

 famous when my niece was born. Her Mum gets 

so cross that everyone assumes that is where the name comes from

and now so many little girls are called Kiera.

I remember we  noticed after we decided the names for my eldest daughter

that all of a sudden all the baby girls I met where called the same

so at the last minute we changed it.

So talking of babies, my friends daughter very unexpectedly

( yes you did read it correctly)

had a baby boy recently so we have all been buying (and making)

baby clothes.

These I love , I found the pattern among hundreds on Pinterest,

and they turned out great but I now can't remember which pattern I used. 

The friend was loves them too and they were

all wrapped up in the beautiful paper below.

I've never bought double sided paper before

as it's so expensive but this was just so sweet.

Well I'm off to London now to see George Michael in concert 

hopefully via the V&A so I'm tell you about it when I get back.

Have a great weekend.
