getting old!
Well im 49 today but feel 90 lol.
Hubby is off for the day and cooking a brunch for us later, im just chilling out and designing some new teddy bear patterns, nice to get back into making bears, but this time they are cloth ones. The first one is entered into the show at Bovington this week, will take a piccy when i get the chance, also entered a bag i made called 'black, white and red all over' :)
Had kisses from all the dogs but hubby forgot lol.
