Summer Holidays 2015

Good Afternoon,

Well there is only a couple of weeks left of Summer holidays here in the UK.

The weather has been hit and miss as usual for our small island...I have to say sorry for being offline over the past few weeks, this is due to trying to manage working full time and summer holiday childcare...

As normal I wake up in mid July in a panic about the 6 weeks, and than at the end think what was I worrying about :))

I have managed to have at least 1 day off a week to spend time with pickle...

Last Friday we went to Brighton for the day, one of our favourite holiday days out!..we went down the Lanes, Choccywoccydoodah, Lego shop, H & M, Cath Kidston and Molton Brown.. and lunch was had at Jamie's Italian which I really love.

Here are some pictures from Jamie and Choccy..

This is shop is so great, it's down the Lanes, but everything in it is made out of Chocolate---yummy!

Jamies is great as they offer all their Pasta meals Gluten Free..and the ice cream is so good.

We had some bad weather days, so board games came into play..me and pickle really enjoyed this time. With a glass of fizz for me.

I even managed to find sometime to do some crochet - I am making a granny square blanket for the lounge in the winter.

And finally pickle wanted to make jam.. so blackberry jam in the making!

So Monday we went to Paradise Park and I forgot to take any pictures.. then it was back to work, pickle is visiting Nanny and Grandad at the seaside..

Mittens decided one morning that she wanted to come to work with me!

Hope you all have a nice weekend!

Thanks for stopping by

Pretty bags Thank you Cath Kidston!

Good Afternoon,

So I have been after a Cath Kidston bag for sometime now, and when me and pickle went to Brighton at Easter and visited her shop I wanted to buy everything!

But I managed to get this beauty online, I am one happy girlie...

The little pocket purse/pouch next to it, is my latest sewing goodie, I got the Cath Kidston Sew book sometime ago and have been meaning to start, so last night I managed to complete this in about 2 hours.
The fabric was all pre-cut and came with the book.

This is what it's like inside...

My Bias Binding want abit off, but I am pleased with it, the zip was easy.

So on completing this I now want to make the Travel Pouches, I have some pretty fabric left in the stash so I am going t try to get it done tonight!

Hope you like my pictures, Do you like Cath Kidston?? I am waiting my next purchase, hmmmm

Thanks for stopping by.
