Sneaked a quick one in!

Happy Easter to you Bloggettes!

Did the Easter bunny come to see you? Well he came here but not to see me.... ~sniff~ He did come to see my OM though....

Not a bad haul of chocolate delights for one person eh? He now feels suitably guilty! Muahahahaha! Now I did go and show him a couple of rather nice sewing machines yesterday;))

Now this basket is what I made at sewing class. Its got quilting, appliqué, embroidery and 'stuff' on it. It holds a decent amount of chocolate too ;)) I think without the Easter stuff it could be useful for various things, so watch this space ;))




Now seeing as I was fired up and we have a new baby due (NOT MINE!!!) I made a baby basket. Now I know I'm calling these things baskets but I don't know what else you'd call them. I thought this would be good for keeping nappies etc in on the baby's changing station.


I put a pack of nappies in (when did they start doing hundreds of sizes and stuff??) A couple of baby toiletries filled the bag out. When did they start doing so many of those too? There were stacks to pick! In the end I went for good old Johnson's. Plus it had the nicest scent some of them were really strong smells. To me baby stuff should be a delicate scent.
