Good grief I have been given an award. Thank you indeed Myfanwy, what a surprise. Now, I have some rules to follow so I will get back to it tomorrow, well, later today. Gosh, I have an award....
*****************************
It is Chinese New Year- the year of the TIGER, I showed Rebecca today how to make lanterns, she had great fun chopping up my computer paper!!!!! It's alright, it was old stuff I had used and didn't need anymore, think she is looking to make some with my lovely coloured paper, we shall see miss. Just look at that picture, butter wont melt in my mouth!!!!
**************************************************
My goodies arrived from Myfanwy on Friday morning, but with Blogger playing silly wotsits with me I didn't manage to get the pictures up, so here they are for you to see what I am now delving into!!! All Di's fault.
Books and water colour paints...
A piece of 'altered' paper Myfanwy has already done -
will mine be as pretty as this?
and this believe it or not, is a piece of tissue paper [I think] she has done,
isn't that amazing...
I love these Myfanwy, thank you so much...
[this is better in real life so to speak - the colours are more delicate]
I am really looking forward to getting sloppy with the paints now, like a big kid.
Myfanwy suggested Rebecca may like to do it too,
WHAT
she may be better at it than her Nana too...
I will ask her, honest.
hee hee

the back -
now if you look really closely ay the back, you will see - oh dear -
in two areas, the tension on my machine went lala for some reason,
luckily I spotted it and changed it,
but I was unable to
undo the stitching I had already done as the fabric on the back leaves holes once quilted.
Apologies for that.
IF you wish to change your mind
and not want it just let me know.

I thought I had sent you an email to tell you about the bag, I do apologise.
Ann,
Would be good to see some of your daughters water colours... YOu are way way too kind to me you know...
Cath,
I know I wont be anywwhere near as talented with the paints as you and Maggi, but I am willing to give it a go. Probably end up with a lot of 'mud' coloured sheets. hahahaha, no prob, will think of a use for them. Mudflat swaps, there you go...
Jan
You are all the best you know that don't you.
I think your OWOH quilt looks fine. I know you stressed over it. It looks lovely. So so deserved on the blog award. GO YOU
