Last week I happened to look over my back fence & spot this little guy at the bottom of a tree. I ran back into the house & grabbed my camera but by the time I'd made it out to the park he was up this Eucalyptus tree. He stayed there for about five minutes for a chat (I did the chatting) before climbing further up. We are lucky enough to back onto a nature reserve so it's lovely to sit out the back & hear the native birds of a morning.
This past week I have been sewing up a storm for the BrisStyle Market on this Saturday at Hamilton at St Augustines Church. This is one of the bags I have just finished. I'm using recycled hessian & old coffee bags & finishing them off with vintage & antique laces etc, this one is embellished with a removable tulle & silk flower with a bit of bling in the middle and it has calico ruffles.
Have a great week everyone, my sewing machine is calling!!
Oh very pretty Joolz! Well done. ♥
ReplyDeleteI love your bag. How great to have the park at your back door.
ReplyDeleteGood luck for the weekend.

The Koala bear is adorable! I'm glad I didn't toss out my small bit of burlap as it seems I am seeing it used everywhere on French style bags! Added with the ruffles your bag looks quite elegant. Now I am going to have to think up what to use my burlap/gunny sack fabric for. Thank you for coming over to follow my blog.
