FnwF

Boy...trying to get on the computer with my young adults around here is hard work.
But...I have finally succeeded.
That will teach them to leave an empty computer chair...yes I still have some speed in me.
As I tell them Mum rocks.
Now as for Friday night I had a play with a Sue Spargo pattern and some very beautiful hand dyed wool fabric.
Friday night I did the cutting and a little sewing....
On Saturday night I did some more sewing and some stuffing.
I just have to pull the petals up and secure them with some buttons. Stitch the peony flower down to the top.
Attach the pretty blue bird and glue the base to the stand.
