Time at home

 

We're still enjoying making butterfly birthday cards 🦋

We're trying to do a drawing a day in the sketchbooks here 🌞 the sun and rainbows are Emma's favourites

I'm feeling a bit unwell, so spending more time at home, sewing the blanket🧵 hope your surviving the cold january weather ❄️ Keep warm, xxx

Chocolate cake

 

Sometimes when the world feels like it's too much, it's good to make a chocolate cake 🍫

Definitely helping me combat the January blues ✨ hope your having a good week 

Pink

I've been a bit naughty and bought some pink fabric for Emma's hexi quilt 🌸

It's almost neon pink which is unusual for vintage fabric so I nabbed it while I could...

I do need to get other colours for it, especially browns and oranges. But they aren't as fun to get as pink! 🌸 It's my favourite colour...

I wonder if I'll ever finish this quilt. I started making it about 3 years ago, it's hand sewn so it's taking forever. It's my never ending project but I love sewing it in the evenings. It will be a double size for Emma's bed one day. Wishing you a good weekend 🌸

Paintings

Paintings we made today ❤️

Things we did today

 We went on a lovely walk in the park today 🌞 

There's beautiful light at this time of year

And we made some drawings inspired by space and rainbows 🌈☁️

I bought two cheap sketchbooks so me and Emma can try to draw each day together ❤️ it's our favourite thing to do together. Making stuff with my baby ❤️

Making cards

Me and Emma love to paint and draw and make cards together ❤️ it's our favourite thing to do together, xxx

Happy new year

 We made a new year's cake together today ❤️

Emma put on the sprinkles, her favourite past time :) they go everywhere! 

Terrible light but this is the hexi patchwork I'm making Emma. I do a little bit each night before bed...

All I want this year is to make life happy for Emma and to go on more walks together. To have time to bake and sew and keep going. I feel grateful for her and our health (touch wood). Wishing you a lovely new year ✨
