new

a new house complete with stunning decorative touches. I grew up in a very old house with lacework (well that's what i'm calling it, what is it called?) on the ceiling. I love it:)



a new sewing basket featuring an image by one of my very fav illustrators, picked up for a meagre $2.75. It was one of those finds where I had a moment or two of stunned shock upon seeing it, then gleefully snatched it up before anyone else could. Not that the gentlemen nearby would have been interested but you never know



new pixies, coming along slowly slowly



a new dress from a clever aunt for a not so new anymore little lass.



and a bundle of new fabric. What's new in your world?

meet frenchie

Crazy week here so I didn't achieve as much as I would have liked. I did get this little miss Frenchie all finished today but her two little mates are still waiting for their turn. Frenchie and Florrie will go up tonight with their two friends making appearances through the week.

Oh and in case you didn't know Frenchie is of course named after that fantastic character on one of my fav childhood shows, Grease. I've been humming "Beauty School drop out" all day!

Caladenia argocalla

This tee is up for auction on ozebaby at the moment.

it is a bit special and a bit different. My boy lachie is a conservation geneticist and works on these little native orchids. They are a really amazing flower and there petals really remind me of the wings of a pixie.

It is so sad that there are so many things disappearing from the bush. So many, like these, a lot of people probably don't know off in the first place and they'll be gone before too long
