Time for a little celebration!

I don't seem to have found much time to take part in Handmade Monday since we moved house. We've been busy decorating - well, I've been busy decorating. Mr HbyH has been busy plumbing, so that we can run our heating and hot water from our wood-burning stove (inspired by the shock we received when ordering our first tank of oil - HOW MUCH!)

And, of course we've still been enjoying the lovely countryside. I still can't quite believe how luck we are to live here.
Still got lots to do, but I'm finally back at the sewing machine in between odd-jobs. AND...I have a nice new sewing room all to myself.
And to top it all off, my Facebook page has reached 900 likes. So I've decided to have a little celebration (I know, I could have waited until 1,000 but that just seems like aaaaaages away!). I'm giving away this teal and brown cross-body messenger bag to one lucky person who leaves a comment on my Facebook page.


There (may) still be time to enter by the time you read this. So if you want to pop by my Facebook page and leave a comment before 8pm this evening (29th Sept) then I'll add your name into the draw.

Ahhh, it's good to be back.

  1. Oh yes - oil! I'm so glad to be away from it now, the first house for many, many years on the mains has made such a difference. But I do miss my wood burner - the ritual of lighting the fire, and watching the flames is very comforting :)
    Congrats on reaching 900 likes (I'm one of very many now!)
