Patches

Today has been a little bit of a lazy day but I have been crafting and baking so I have tried to keep myself busy. I decided today I would finish off my first patchwork cushion.

The patchwork squares were from a little kit I brought from liberties in London. I just adore their fabric and with it at being quite a high price and me being not so brilliant sewing I thought I would go for a little pack of 36 squares 2in x 2in.
I have made quite a few cushions but I really enjoyed making this one as I have never tried patchwork before.

I know my squares are not completely level but it was handmade after all. I am heading to London next week and think of picking up some more to make Christmas presents. I know terrible i m already thinking of Christmas but it is only just oiver four months away!

Let us know what you think of the cushion I would love to hear peoples opinion.

Creativity and hopefully more blogging

Hi everyone sorry for the lack of blogging I just feel I never really have anything interesting that I have done or even made but it seems like recently I have done a lot of new things and have been very creative and a lot has seemed to have happened over these last couple of months. 

Since all these new adventures I will be starting to get back into my blogging. So starting from today I have been very very busy and very creative.

Today I have been baking and crafting. I made a loaf of bread for the 2nd time from Paul Hollywood's bread book. And since I have started taking up bread making I thought it would be ideal to make a bread bag (what the bread is placed on).

The bread was easy and simple to make and is currently making home smell lovely of freshly baked bread. The bread bag again was very easy to make. All I used was one tea towel cut in half and some ribbon easy least. If you would like to know the tea towel was from Wilkinsons.

In the baking mood I also decided to make some brownies from the hummingbird bakery cookbook which always go down very well with my boyfriend and his work colleagues. Morel lovely smells in house.

Hope to speak to everyone soon and I will try and get back into the blogging world.

Home Sweet Home

Well I have finally moved into the new flat and I am loving it! It is such a lovely decent sized flat. Here is a sneaky pic of some of the contents. Sorry it is a little messy still unpacking boxes. But once each room is sorted I will slowly add more and better pictures to my blog.

Card Curtsy of my mum

At the moment I am lacking in internet so I am currently sat in starbucks drinking coffees and eating some yummy cake!

Anyways since Friday a lot has happened not only have a moved into the flat but I also got my grad from doing my Top Up degree in Photography and I can reveal I got a 2.2. I was a little disappointed at first but then I realised that actually it is a really good grade and to say I only did that course for a year is a great thing to think about. I have also thought that you are not actually judge on your grade as a photographer or even an artist for that matter but you are actually judge on your portfolio. My parents are really proud of me as well and have offered to buy me a new bike as my current one is falling apart they have said I can spend up to £300 and I am already looking and have seen a lovely bike in the local bike shop so I can not wait.

Other good news is that at the cafe I am currently working in I have been offered a full time position from september there so meaning more money so I can pay my way in the flat which is always a good thing. Anyways I have been in starbucks for a hour already and I think I better go soon as there about to close up! Speak to you guys soon!!1
