April saw me celebrate another birthd.......my gorgeous friend Ondrea made me this beautiful stitchery which now has pride of place in my bedroom.....totally, totally spoilt!! Thanks Ondrea ☺
Another equally gorgeous friend Shez gave me this yummy bundle of goodies..... so, so, so love everything! I especially love the passport holder and can't wait to put it to use when I head off o my first overseas holiday later this year, thanks sooo much Shez ☺
My eaqually beautiful sister Anne who knows me so well ( maybe too wel lol ) gave me all the delicious goodies in the above photo, I have been dying to try out these caron cakes ewhen spotlight brought them out but I've been on a yarn diet this year till I go on my holiday so I've resisted temptation and was rewarded with two from Anne in the colourway blueberry, now to decide on which pattern I want to use them on ☺ thanks so much Anne!!
I also received a beautifully stitched project folder from my friend Cheryl, just look at all the work that has gone into this gift...... feeling very, very spoilt my friend. Thank you so much for making me feel so special on my birthday☺
Anotheer birthday was also celebratedd by my father who turned 90 three days after mine, Anne & I went home to help him celebrate this milestone as well as family and friends including his great grand daughter Connie pictured with him above ☺
A small celebration, but just right for our dad who isn't into fuss so we secretly planned this all in one day and he had no inkling whatsoever lol☺
I've also been busy with a new project using perle 8 cotton and a 1.5 hook, so tiny compared to the hook sizes I usually use, this will eventually turn into a scarf ☺
Here's a close up of the squares after two rounds in each colour......
I also had a finish with another baby blanket done in big baby 4ply acrylic....
I've also been working on and off on this project, I can finally see the end in sight with this one......
Another rainbow ripple bbaby blanket being worked on.....loving these colours together ☺
I've also nearly finished this ripple blanket using 8ply stylecraft special dk, so diferent to the perle 8 cotton I've been working with lately ☺ so as you can see I've been keeping myself very busy while my blog has been quiet but I'll be posting again soon with more of what I've been doing/working on ☺

i couldn't believe that i would ever be re-unite with my ex-lover, i was so traumatize staying all alone with no body to stay by me and to be with me, but i was so lucky one certain day to meet this powerful spell caster Dr Akhere,after telling him about my situation he did everything humanly possible to see that my lover come back to me,indeed after casting the spell my ex-lover came back to me less than 48 hours,my ex-lover came back begging me that he will never leave me again,3 months later we got engaged and married,if you are having this same situation just contact Dr Akhere on his email: AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com thanks very much sir for restoring my ex-lover back to me,his email: AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com or call/whatsapp:+2349057261346
hindi ako makapaniwala na kailanman ay muling makiisa ako sa aking kasintahan, labis akong na-trauma sa pananatiling nag-iisa na walang katawan na manatili sa akin at makakasama ko, ngunit napakasuwerte ako sa isang tiyak na araw upang matugunan ito malakas na spell caster na si Dr Akhere, matapos sabihin sa kanya ang tungkol sa aking sitwasyon ginawa niya ang lahat ng makataong posible upang makita na ang aking kasintahan ay bumalik sa akin, sa katunayan matapos na ihagis ang spell ang aking dating kasintahan ay bumalik sa akin ng mas mababa sa 48 oras, dumating ang dating kasintahan ko. bumalik sa pagmamakaawa sa akin na hindi na niya ako pababayaan, 3 buwan mamaya kami ay nakipag-ugnay at nag-asawa, kung nagkakaroon ka ng parehong sitwasyong ito makipag-ugnay lamang kay Dr Akhere sa kanyang email: AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com maraming salamat sa sir sa pagpapanumbalik ng aking dating kasintahan bumalik sa akin, ang kanyang email: AKHERETEMPLE@gmail.com o tumawag / whatsapp: +2349057261346
