Yes, getting a few things done at last. It feels GOOD.
More Charity Christmas cards - there are some great ones this year. Really loving the Cancer Research ones shown in first card picture, especially the scandinavian style ones.
The hyacinths that I cheated and bought ready potted with the flowers still deep within the leaves have made amazing progress and are flowering already.
Pink in the Kitchen
(sorry about the surrounding clutter but that's how it is around here)

and these gorgeous bluebell coloured ones in the sitting room - the room is full of their beautiful fragrance.
On the sewing front today, prompted by re-discovering a pretty vintage glasses case (beautiful tapestry flowers with a velvet back) that I bought a few months ago for a few pounds, I decided to make a few cases from some of that lovely Japanese linen I showed you in my last post.
They are lined in natural Irish linen and have a layer of wadding to soften them.
Am hoping to make a few Blackberry and iPhone cases tomorrow too.
And lastly, but by no means least, Logan insisted I shared these latest photos of him.
He was extremely miffed when he saw all those photos of Bessie in my last post but none of him.
So here you are Logan ;)
I caught him up on the pillows, and almost under the duvet!
