Craft shopping

What a lovely day out with the girls from craft class.


What could be better than a trip to the huge craft shop at Hillmount Garden Centre.

Much deliberation and decisions ... Ooh what to buy

Thanks to Anna and Pauline who did the driving as poor Thelma still has a dislocated shoulder.

Tartan chair


 Here are some photos of my latest home furnishing project.

I purchased an old antique chair from a local auction ... I am sure you will agree it was in a very shabby state and was very grubby.

but.. theres always potential......



so I purchased this lovely tartan fabric from Blenheim Fabrics and ... here's the results




I thought the stag cushion just set the tartan off too... 

I crocheted the purple heather coloured cushion to go with it

loving the new look in my sunroom
