A little dotty bird told me...

That I could have her ladybird crochet book!



It started with this post here



A parcel arrived, wrapped so beautifully .....
in true 'dotty bird' style...


....and it was not just one...oh nooo..... she gave me Five yes 5! Ladybird Books and a very special brooch.....

Woo hoo....! I said.


♫....


Have you met Dotty Bird ? 

She lives in Cornwall, if I did not live in Dorset, I would like to live in Cornwall

I swooned over her little dotty 'birdnest' brooches...who wouldn't?

But I fell in love with her butterfly


As for the crochet ladybird book its everything I hoped it would be...and more...

ie. Simply Glorious....



We agreed on a crafty swap...but I can't show you what I am making for her because its a suprise for a very kind little Dotty Bird



Thank you very much Dotty Bird!


From a very happy

Hanger love....

I do love to see a pretty hanger hanging around.

....its something I have in common with my pal the Squirrel
 she too loves a good hanger and has a wonderful collection too...


This week I am settling down to some gentle,simple crochet....

I fancied covering hangers, in cheery colours...


There were Cherries .....


and bows.....


pretty pink ones....with pearly buttons





these were some I made earlier.....some of you may have seen these images before?


So I apologise for the repetition... but as I explained at the start, I do love to see a pretty hanger....


and it is MY blog..

Happy days...

.....this month Gb are celebrating their 2nd birthday....
So
