That Friday Feeling (closed)


Ooo being busy is making me boring, I'm afraid. Roll after roll after roll. 
It did leave me with some funky burn and scorch marks all over my hands 
and fingers though. I can detect a definite pattern :) 
Not much time for doing anything else but work. And of course the children
have been off school for two weeks. Imagine me having the 'deer in headlight' look
most of the time. But, but it all got done, and all is good, who needs sleep anyways. 
I do need a big dose of creativity, though! I have been working on some new illustrations, 
and have a sewing project planned for this coming week.




To start off another lovely Weekend, here is a Lilla Lotta Give Away!
This week I am giving away two meters of The Home is Heart tape!
This tape is really wonderful to add to a quilt, or big patchwork projects.
If you would like the chance for this tape to land in your postbox, please
leave me a comment! 

Last week winners of the Cup Cakes tapes are

Tina Teaspoon uit Brugge

Please email me your postal address at lillalotta@mac.com and I will swiftly wrap
and pack for you!

It is nice to share! Do spread the love!
