I just love where I live, not only do we have a fabulous stretch of the south coast of England , the De la Warr Pavillion a stunning art deco building with art gallery and theatre but ALSO loads of charity shops to sift and thrift through where lovely vintage finds can be had. This makes me happy with all the recycling and up cycling I can do for various sewing projects I set myself (Alice is also keen to make and do)keeping me/us happy and busy bees...

Birdie bunting


I've been having such fun making bunting over the past 6 weeks or so and have managed to supply 2 delicious shops in Bexhill-on-Sea with samples of my bespoke vintage fabric bunting which I have decided to call "birdie bunting". I think this name came to me after realising that I just love to see and watch birds on wire and imagined that one day little birdies may like to perch on my bunting during a happy outdoor gathering.

This is the very delicate and beautiful brooch which one of my dearest very long time friend had made for me. As I have mentioned before the title of this blog was inspired by the phonetic words from my daughter Alice Rosie's mouth and I couldn't resist sharing this.
It's worn on very special ocassions and only those who are allowed close can see the words x
