So Cute It Hurts

sweetness of a friend

I'm feeling much better and in catch up mode eventhough i woke up with a nasty cold this morning (i don't know how i managed to get sick again). I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my self-prescribed combination of medication, movies and a long nap will contribute to a speedy recovery.

I know i've mentioned it here loads of times, but i really do have the most wonderful friends. It makes me a little misty just thinking about it. The gorgeous dresser above is just a part of my miniature kitchen gift from a lovely friend, Vicky, who happens to be amazing and so talented, i could gush about her for hours.

The little details are unbelievable. She even made me little beautiful items to go along with the dresser ~ swoon! A while ago, i chatted with Vicky about making a Kitchen roombox for Coco. I was seeking advice from her with miniature funitures and she gifted me this dresser. Thank YOU for your overwhelming generosity, Vicky. I LOVE each and every thing you sent. Coco loves them too.

This dresser even have functional drawers! The theme totally matches my shabby chic rose kitchen roombox. It's a dream come true to be able to collect some of Vicky's gorgeous work! Pretty fantastic, wouldn't you say? I would. I'm over the moon.

I love having a friend in United Kingdom.
I have another miniature project to show you very soon.
Until then, be well!
Love to you and yours.

carry all.

I still haven't totally recovered from what i now refer to as "coming down with the funk" (congestion, sore throat and headache), however i had quite a productive day yesterday. Pretty proud about that...

These are some of my newest miniature tote bags, one is a custom order for a dollhouse settings and some others are Coco's goodies. She needed a few more (okay, i needed her to have a couple more).

These tote bags are definitely a great way to use up some fabric scraps, and i always like it when i find projects that work for that.

This is a new bag design. I made a pattern out of a paper and tweaked it along the way. I really dig how it turned out. Very spring. I finished it with some raw edges and Coco seemed to be down with that. I love it's raw edges and that vintage shabby chic rose print paired with the linen.

This new bag pattern is easy to sew, and it's cute ~ sometimes something being easy doesn't necessarily mean it's cute, not the case here. I love it so much, i made another one bigger in size. This time i used my all time favorite vintage cross stitch pattern and finishd it with some tinny small gathering stitches. Cute, eh? I am filled with total giddiness.

I'm looking forward to...
Taking it easy this beautiful Sunday.
Afternoon Sunday tea.
Sunday nap and reading this new book.
Love to you.
