I would like to say I've been to exotic destinations and so busy I haven't been able to post but in reality I've been watching the Olympics and Paralympics. I love it and it's so blumming inspirational but I'm glad today is the last day as I want to get my life back!
How are you all? What have you been up to?
I've been up to some other things but not much. We haven't had a lot of summer in the UK this year, in fact it's been pretty dire but a few weeks ago just before I went back to work after my knee op was a beautiful day and off we went to a local antique centre for a browse and a coffee out in the sunshine. Nice but even nicer I got to wear a blouse I've never worn and LOVE! When I made it originally I messed up and made it too big, then I gained a bunch of weight and haven't been able to wear it, now it fits beautifully - well actually now since that photo it's a little loose but hey that's all good!
I know it looks like a car park but it's not, it's very beautiful, the building the antique centre is in a 17th Century Mill Building, so it's an amazing setting!
During the summer I also scored this fantastic coffee table.
I've been after another 50s coffee table for a long time, we used to have a gorgeous one but it sadly met a sticky end. This one is ideal though, it matches our living room curtains beautifully, it's always worth waiting for that piece you're looking for, I also got it very cheap too at £15!!
Well I think that's enough for now, I'm back and hopefully posting much more again and reading and commenting on your blogs again.
I have my sewing mojo back so more on that and I have lots of decorating to do too!
oh and sadly I'm having to get password put back on my comments, apologies but I've had sooooo much spam comments lately :o(

I recognise that sunny little spot! The fabric and neckline of your blouse are really special - well done! Your coffee table was a great bargain - but I am SO wondering how the other one met its sticky end?

Glad to see you back - missed you! Love the print on that blouse and your fab hair and earrings, and as for that table - what a bargain :))
You and the hubs both look faaaaabulous! Wish I could sew since it's difficult for me (as a large gal) to find much vintage that fits. But it's fun to look!
Quite a pretty pattern on your dress.
