Wedding Day

Today is the day our Daughter is getting Married! This has been a very busy hectic but most wonderful week of last minute preparations. All the guests are here in Victoria, some of Michaels family have not seen each other for 20 years, and some to meet for the first time. My Mum and Mike have settled in and are very excited. I am going to get my hair done, flowers are to be dropped off at Wellers for table decorations, and then to where my daughter is staying to help her get ready. Fingers crossed the weather holds, I promise pictures at the end of the day.
Thank you all for the best wishes, kind thoughts and sharing my journey with me.
You all have a lovely day,

Dormouse

Yesterday i realised i needed to take a miss matched cup and saucer to the Mad Hatters Tea Party and so i bought a small plate for my oversized cup and glued them together. I now thought the cup now needs something.
So here is a dormouse.
Hand stitched, and in the cup ready to go.

Won and Shoes

Look at what i got in the post! this delightful Snowman, along with this very cute butterfly and plastic cup cake, filled with jelly beans (now eaten!) All the way from NY from D.Cannon.
I think he is simply delightful. I would like to write a thank you but i cannot find your blog so if you are reading this, let me know thanks!
I bought these red shoes to finish off the Red Queen outfit, Not bad for $10. The funny thing is i am not a shoe person and most of the time i am in bare feet, so to wear these in the challenge is funny in itself.

Baby Blanket

This is what i will be making next. A baby blanket for my sister who was coming to the wedding but now cannot of the wonderful news that she is pregnant. It is a free pattern from Lion Brand. They have hundreds of free knitting and crochet patterns and this one is very aptly named Tree of Life. The pattern i was going to do originally was in correctly printed and the pattern is not the same as in the book. I like this one better.
