Some things achieved, some procrastinations, some broken promises and a change of mind! Still, I had a lovely weekend - the best thing was when I asked the Littlies if Nanny was 'fat', 'just normal' or 'skinny' - they both said in chorus - 'just normal' ... you don't get any better than that! Mmmm - Nanny is a bit fat really, but trying to do something about it!
Also, yesterday Mildred talked about the hymn-song 'Jesus Loves the Little Children' - so we spent some fun time learning that while I stitched! They do learn it at school, but it was much easier being taught without distraction!
I'm going to kill three birds with one stone - it is my birthday on Wednesday, Blogaversary on 8 April and this is my Post 187 !!!
What I would like to do is offer the Runner above and the Dilly Bag below as gifts! Whoever is the Winner can have first choice and then the second I will give to one of my PIF'ers!
The runner is 34" x 21" and looking quite pretty - the Prairie points sat beautifully for me! The dilly bag is my favourite dilly bag (I will make another one!) and with it I have included 10 reels of fine grade Presencia cotton thread in a lovely selection of colours!
Please join me for a visit this week and leave a Comment for me and your name will go in the hat - I'd like you to tell others, too - I'll close off late Sunday 22 March (my time!) - looking forward to hearing from you♥

Happy Birthday from me too! Have a great day. I particularly like the dilly bag, love the fabric used.
Lurline I am so glad you had such an enriching weekend. I saw the runner on your blog and of course I love it.

Happy Birthday Lurline. Your giveaways look lovely. Count me in please.
I'm liking your version of the Birdy - saw some at the craft show on Saturday, Melly and me did a workshop and that was what the ladies made. I didn't do the workshop but managed to see some of the Birdies throughout the day. Happy Day!
Three reasons to celebrate. You don't do things by halves! LOL
Happy Birthday To You!! Your projects are wonderful as usual and the bird is adorable. You never cease to amaze me with these adorable projects you make. Such eye candy on a Monday morning. :D
