KISS: A little taster of what’s to come…

image

I’ve finally finished the cross stitch I started about a year ago. It’s been crumpled up in my handbag for the majority of that time so it needs a bit of TLC in the form of a wash and iron I think!!!

It’s not that I’ve put an extraordinary amount of time into this one, its just been a back up plan, handing around waiting for a time when I have nothing better to do.

The trim is ordered, as soon as it comes ill make it up into the cushion I promiced to make this time last year.

I love the feeling of finishing a big project, don’t you?

a romantic weekend at the bakelite museum

‘Its our anniversary coming up soon baby, maybe we could go to that bakelite thingy you said about last year’

The boy earned some serious brownie points with that sentence, firstly because not only did he remember our anniversary (when i had forgotton-oops!) and remembered me saying about the ‘bakelite thingy’ but also because he was more than willing to spend a day looking at plastic to put a smile on my face. his friends all think he’s mad. it makes me love him even more.

I sneaked a few photo’s for you to look at!

I will post more photo’s soon, or if you can’t wait there is a few on my flickr page. If you fancy taking a trip yourself, the ‘bakelite thingy’ is a museum in wiliton. Its well worth a look if you love anything kitch and colourful

xoxo
