The first week of the new half term flew by. Here’s a few pictures to outline the highlights, once again to find out more about Sunday Sevens, nip over to Nat’s blog at threadsandbobbins.com
1. Loving wearing my new boots, but sadly I keep finding a snail trail on them in the porch in the mornings.
2. The first issue of my Love Sewing subscription arrived. It was nice to come home to after a long day at work.
3. I began ordering and receiving items for my #secretsewing gifts. Whilst the contents are top secret, I particularly liked this business card that accompanied one item.
4. No bonfire celebrations due to my delicate dogs, but I did soak some retro dried peas to go with my veggie pasty for tea.
5. Friday night marking.
6. Hair done and styled with hairdresser’s new gadget that sucks the hair in and curls it – bizarre!
7. My only make for the week, and my first pattern hack, a Zippy Top neckline on a Maya dress. Inexpensive but beautiful jersey fabric.
Love the fabric you’ve used for your top, and great hair 🙂

Thank you, it was a jersey, an ebay bargain but I love how it looks made up 🙂

Beautiful hair-do! I’ve seen those curlers, but have been afraid of them!

Thank you 🙂 Sadly it didn’t look like that after I’d walked home in the rain. The gadget was amazing, I hadn’t seen one before!

I don’t know where you are, but they are selling them here in Canada, if it is the same thing. It looks like a rod with a doughnut on the end. I was afraid to put my hair in it just in case I couldn’t get it out! Yes, we have rain on and off here too!

I’m in England and am jealous that you are in Canada – it’s my absolute favourite place 🙂

Oh that’s so nice to say! I pretty much haven’t been anywhere except inside Canada so I can’t comment on anywhere else! Well except Hawaii and Disneyland but everyone knows that is just tropical beaches and fancy rides. Would love to see England some day. You should head over to my blog, I am having a giveaway and you might win a pattern from Canada! Haha 😀
