A wonderful meeting between friends

Hello everyone :) I am back lol. I guess by now you know that I went to San Francisco  for my holidays :)))) and that the special person I met was the wonderful Jennifer from plushpussycats  Wow what a meeting . Jennifer was as wonderful as I thought she would be. I confess I was a little nervous but I need not have been  We got on so well from the moment we met and had so much in common. It was so fantastic to meet a blog friend. Jennifer doesn't live in San Francisco so to fly on an almost 2 hour flight just to meet ME was awesome and I am so grateful to her for making my holiday so very extra special. We had a wonderful ( though too short ) a time together. Jennifer is a warm bubbly lovely person my daughter and sister also fell in love with her. We were all sad at parting with her but I have some fantastic memories to keep :)
THANK YOU JENNIFER. It was such a lovely experience and I hope that some day we can meet again and that I get to meet other blog Friends Hmm where is my piggy bank hehe.  Now for some (lots) of pictures  :))))

Have a wonderful weekend and Hugs to ALL my Friends

Hello everyone :) Happy September to you all I hope you all have a great one. Gosh I now have 390 followers I remember when I got my first 100 I was so excited as I never thought I would have so many now nearly 400 and I am still excited and still cant believe I have so many. I will again have to think about a give-away but not yet. I have my holiday coming up soon but more about that later :D
Now I will show you the first knitted baby dress I have made.

I also made the lacy blanket as you can see the dress is a little big but I am happy with it for a first try :)

I have also started on my toy shop. I have papered it. The teddy bear paper is wrapping paper my sister gave me knowing that I would love it. The other paper is scrap booking paper. The floor is sticky paper that looks like floor boards. Its so easy to use and if you are lucky you can get some great patterns in it.

I also found this little wooden castle its a slot together. It was a bit fiddly but I thought it would look great in the toy shop. I can use it to display some small toys.

What do you think ?

I would also like to give a big welcome to all my new followers I hope you enjoy your visits :)

Wishing you all a great weekend.

Hugs to all my Friends
