I'm still obsessing over my purchases from yesterday...how good does that blanket look hanging on my washing line :)))
Bella has made fabulous use of the new ear-rings, dresses and typewriter (as you can see by this photo). James is also loving the new typewriter - I really need to hunt down another one.
Oh and the start of my Easter projects for this year. The foam eggs I've covered with a mix of mod podge and tissue paper. The tied ribbon was Fiona's idea from this post here. Check out her totally beautiful eggs...so yum.
I too am obsessing over your AWESOME crochet afgan....do you know if there's a link somewhere to a pattern for it??
I'd LOVE to make one like that! It's AMAZING!!!
Your dd is sooo cute with the jewlery on!!!

One lovely little typewriter! And I love the eggs -yep Mel I'll be onto mine!

Yup the afghan is beautiful. I have one that is about a quarter the size of the one you have rescued which is made of hexagons. I made it many years ago. I loved and still love making granny squares because you can play with so many pretty colours.

What great purchases. Love blue bunny too, he's very cute. I still have my old typewriter from college days (which makes it quite old now - LOL), my girls love getting on there and typing stories. I'm sure your guys will too.
