Go Nadal!!

I have been making a present for a friend of mine who has an old v w beetle. I made her  a cushion for her birthday. She was very pleased so it made it all worth while. I love making presents for people when they love what you have made.

Then today I had a very productive day, well more productive than it has been lately, and I did spend a vast majority of the day sat on my backside watching the Wimbledon men's final. What a match it was fantastic, little son and I were glued to it. I soo wanted Nadal to win as I have always had a soft spot for Bjorn Borg and I did not want Federer to get 6 in a row. (sorry Roger) Anyway I managed to make a coffee cosie for my cafetiere in Daisy the campervan. I have been wanting to make one for ages and today thought, lousy weather, won't go out have a lovely Sunday indoors with the kids and chill doing nice things. So this is the cosie.

I am very pleased with it. Also made these, although they are meant to have buttercream filling. I made it but haven't sandwiched them together yet.

And lastly I saw this bag the other day and although it was only £2.50 I couldn't decide whether to buy it or not, then I got further along the road and saw someone with one and thought actually I do WANT one of them. I'm not usually influenced by other people but it was spotty so I really did have to have it.

I have so many bags to take out so I don't use plastic ones but when I go shopping I forget to take them. But I will try harder. Hope you all had a good weekend.

Wow, how nice to meet a fellow campervan fan. And you are right they could be twins! Are you going to do much more to her?

Love all your goodies you have been making. When Luke gets older we will have to have to make one of his creations. Thanks for the kind comment on my blog about our sweet new little guy. They are all doing great.
Great day to you!!!

Loads of goodness in this post Sally-Ann! That cushion is a work of art and I love how you have put Daisy herself on to your cafetiere cosy! And as for that bag - I WANT ONE TOO!!!!!!

I love Daisy, how old is she? Also love that pillow you made, glad the person who received it liked it as well.
