Sorry about yesterday, going AWOL and all that...I can get you note from my mum if you insist. I had so much to do to get ready for London. The third hook and eye piece was finished and then I had to get the suitcase down, try and figure out a way to get all three pieces to the other end of the country unscathed and sort out some stuff for whilst I'm away. I was relieved to get everthing finished finally and last night just kind of collapsed, (not in a bad way, In a relieved? satisfied? accomplished? way) onto the sofa without much ambition in the embroidery department.
I know I thought, puffs! So I made a little batch of these with a cheery green gingham insert and also added a little bit to the fragment I showed you earlier in the week. I leave at 1 p.m. tomorrow and am so excited!! I love London, as you probably know and I also get to see my little girl...result!! I intend to browse, yes browse various shops, maybe buy some fabric and trims but mostly just have fun. I will be back on monday but might not re appear here until tuesday. Will you miss me??

Hope you have a lovely time.
Yes! Gilly
Weird as it seems the first word that came to mind when I saw them 'edible' - they are so ridiculously cute and, well, edible looking!
Have a gorgeous time in London and ENJOY YOURSELF. Hugs Judy
Thank you for explaining what a toe wrap is! I couldn't figure out why you would want to wrap such a beautiful thing around a toe! Even with a new pedicure! Your spring green puffs are just the thing for a tiny white wicker basket - with a few wisps of grass peeking out. Have a nice time in London - I've been there twice and loved every minute, uh, except the coffee. Tea is much better.
That's a lovely cheery green in your puffs!
gorgeous little puffs! have fun in london...oh, so jealous! xoxo Beth
these remind me of the lovely 'buttons' I purchased when I first met you. Always such exquisite stitching. Although I find London manic I love all that it offers. Hope you have a great time and lots of wonderful shopping. There is a great place in Kings Cross that's opened up recently (9 Caledonian Road to be precise) that's well worth a visit: www.drinkshopdo.com - you can buy, make and eat!
Take care,

OoOh the puffs are so sweet, enjoy London, you must pop into VV Rouleaux (marleybone), it is an awesome place!
