slowly getting there.....

Good morning everyone, hope you are all well and enjoying the summer.

Seems ages since I was here - almost a whole moon ago.....


Im slowly getting back to normal after my run-in with The Dreaded Shingles, but it is taking a lot longer than I would like (me being quite an impatient person).

I have been truly blessed with all the good wishes and treats via swaps and giveaways from the lovely folks in blogland, and will be posting about these soon - thanks so much to all of you!

In the meantime I have been doing a few crafty things (just did not have the energy to then sit at the laptop and post about them, poor old thing that I am!!) these are some of my most recent makes:




I have sooooo loved making these - each heart represents a different phase of the moon. 



I made a lot of them, with many just displaying the crescent moon - these all went out as gifts:


The night sky fabric was a purchase from a patchwork shop called Heirs and Graces in Darley Dale, I bought it ages ago, just perfect for this project


Hope you all have a super Saturday, whatever it is you are doing!
