Meet Polly

Remember I mentioned that I was going off to Isra’s this morning for our Chatty Crafters morning and was hoping for some sew-jo. Well, I went , I conquered but best of all I have got my sew-jo back!She’s a bit boss eyed(as my mum would say) but otherwise I really do like her! It’s the first time I’ve ever made anything like a stuffed doll and I think I just may be hooked. Sharon (Isra’s big sis) showed us what to do and she is a fantastic teacher especially if you listen to what she is telling you to do ( I didn’t). Sharon makes fantastic dolls from felt, you can see one that she had made previously on Isra's header.

I decided whilst I was there that I was going to go off to Boarders to get a copy of the book that the pattern came out of. But unfortunately for me Boarders closes between one and seven during Ramadan boo hoo! So of I went to get my shopping and decided that I would go back tonight and get it.

Whilst doing my shopping, Isra sent me a message which said: ‘there is a treat for you in your bag XOXO’’, so I raced round and got the rest of my shopping and pilled it in the car.

I opened my bag and found thisThe book I wanted!

So I am feeling a tad bit morose today and so I blubbed in the car park of city centre, I am a woman with hormones and proud of it! Note to self - must get back on the evening primrose oil.

So a big thank you to Sharon for showing us how it’s done and to Isra for opening up her house to us and for being such a great friend. (Do i get my Grammy now?)
