Uuuurrrgh....



I HATE migraines!!! I haven't posted in ages, and I've not been able to feed my 'addiction' of reading other bloggers blogs due to the fact that in 8 days I have had two of my migraines-they're not just the sort that are over in a couple of hours either...Oh no, mine last for two/three and sometimes even four days! And most of that time I have to spend in bed....UUUuurgh!


Now, rant over... :) (sorry about that!)

Because I haven't been about much, I was unable to fulfil my promise to send some items to 'Cupcakes at Home' .
(I hasten to add that I will now be sending the items off on Tuesday morning:) )
This is a blogger who has a small animal charity. Unfortunately, I'm not clever enough to have worked out how to do 'links' (lol), but you should be able to find it by looking :)
Tracy who owns the charity has just rescued some abandoned sheep, and one of them was in such a poorly way that it no longer has any ears left!! And when one of them had been sheared, they had sheared all her teats off but one, so she can't feed her lamb herself.... Oh, my heart went out to them when I saw the photos on Tracys blog.
She is going to be having a raffle in June/July, so any items that you can send she would greatly appreciate them to put in the raffle.
I'm sending the items in the photo below, - a few trivets, flower appliques, a set of crochet edged tags and a couple of crocheted corsages.
Hope these help! :)

I found the plates below in my local charity shop. I'm sorry to say, I had to leave them there... As we're moving, I just can't buy anything that's not immediately usable till we've moved. Still, I took some photos to show you :)

I love the 'retro' look, and such saucy ladies! ;)



I know you're saying I'm mad leaving them there...only £2.50 each!

Here's a picture of of our first big butterfly that we've seen in the garden this year. He liked all the colours on the washing line..


And here's our lovely bluebells (and white bells) out in the garden.

We have a guest who has been staying in the garage all winter...He gets in under the door, and comes out in the evenings to go and feed.

Just thought you might like to say hello!

Hopefully by next post I will have made some lovely little lavender cushions that I've started on to show you..
And I'm experimenting with some new appliques for my pin cuchions which I'll show you next time..
Would love to receive all your comments/ideas...
And any advice on 'linking' would be greatly appreciated! :)
Don't forget to have a look at 'Cupcakes at Home' blogger if you get a minute.
Take care everyone...x
