Dudley, looking a bit mean.
The pattern I ordered from [Backstitch].
I'm not opening it until the craft room is ready. Which is good, it gives me time to build up my confidence as the pattern is for this coat. 
I don't know if I'm delusional or supremely optimistic. Am I insane? Can I make something like this? No idea. But I'll give it a try. If nothing else, life is about trying and seeing what you can do. How brilliant would it be if it turned out well? I've sourced some pink fabric that I shall buy as soon as I can for it. I just see this coat in baby pink. The wallpaper for the craft room. It is gorgeous. Can't wait to see it up on the wall.

On the way to school this morning, Gorgeous Girl asked me if I would make her a 'Jubilee Tea' for her and her toys to enjoy. Hmm. Ok. This is what I came up with and she was delighted! Yey. I've been told I'm a good mum! Such praise is music to my ears. 
My favourite thing about this time of year. Roses from the garden. And there are plenty more to come.
How is your week going? What's making you happy?
