Blogging is a winter sport, well for me anyway

I have been struggling to write a post for a couple of weeks, I suppose it's because I haven't made anything really and I haven't had the light to photograph anything. 
I have my allotment and garden and we are house hunting add to that family life and a young dog who needs training and two walks a day and time is escaping me. 
In a very good way of course I love to be busy but something has to give and at this time of year I am too busy to make things and I don't really want to be sat inside at the computer.
So a blogging break is necessary, I promise I'll be back after the summer holidays, if not before.
And I will still be visiting all the lovely blogs I like to read.
I shall sign off for now and wish you all a wonderful summer ( if the sun decides to come out that is )

Second Princess from Lilipopo




Firstly I should appologise for missing a week, I just didn't find the time to blog last week, I'm so sorry. This weeks post nearly hasn't happened as there has been something wrong with the internet in the area and I've only just managed to get on line today, it's v e r y  v e r y  s l o w.
Not so much to show you as the weather has been very very wet, therefore it's been too dark to take any decent photos. I am still working on my big quilt, the top is slowly taking shape. I have also been working at growing lots of seedlings, this is such an exciting time of year for me, my green house is bursting at the seams it's so full of plants : )
I recieved the pattern for the second dancing princess from Lilipopo quite a few weeks ago but I have only just got round to stitching her, this is the smallest one and she is tiny and so so cute.
I have signed up to a Jubilee swap and this little princess is going to be made into a little needle book as part of my swap offerings, I have also been collecting other things for my partner Rhiannon from the sewing boutique, I think it will be a good one.
Have a lovely week
