Another week has flown past and here is my Sunday update of some things that have been made here in my little Highland Cottage.
There hasn't been a post with any monkeys in lately so can't have that!
Here are 2 little sock monkeys that are so bright and cheerful and very cute.
Although we have had a severe shortage of the sun, look what I have been growing.....a field of cacti!!
I have learnt how to make pin toppers (if that's what they are called) to fancy up a pin cushion. I didn't think to take a seperate photo so you can't see them to well. But basically it's an extra long pin and then glue beads from various broken necklaces and I have to say it looks very effective.
Head Honcho made a little tray for them to stand in so they look like they're from a garden centre!
I'm still plodding on with hand quilting my quilt as I've added an extra pattern to the sashing.
Let's hope we will have some good weather very soon, or my seeds will start to sprout in the packet. I've made some green covers out of some water bottles (didnt have any clear ones so I hope that's OK) for some lettuces that are in desperate need to go in the ground as they have outgrown their container. But at the moment the wind is very chilly and it doesn't make me want to leave the warmth to go out and dig. (I'm a very fair weather gardener!)
Here are the linky parties that I will be adding to over the week.
