Handmade Monday - White Linen Blind

Hello lovely people! Just a real quickie today, Summer holidays are well and truly underway. Welcome, welcome dear new followers and to my lovely loyals I have not forgotten that I promised a giveaway - it's in hand, more of that later in the week.

Today, as my contribution to Handmade Monday, I can share Part 2 in 'The Great White Linen' triology, a roman blind.

Part 3 takes me a little outside of my comfort zone. The request has been for a white linen slip cover for a gorgeous old chair. Although challenging I'm very excited about this one and can't wait to get started. I'll let you know when I have something to report.

I'm lucky enough to have my lovely Mum and Dad staying with me this week so my posts may be a little shorter than usual. Hope you are all having a wonderful time. Now before you disappear make sure you pay a special visit to Wendy at 1st Unique Gifts who is hosting another Handmade Monday.

Happy Crafting!

Come back sun all is forgiven!

I'm afraid I owe you all an apology. In my last post I mentioned the need for a blind to shade the sun that was 'streaming' into the boy's room. Well, it's made, it's up, but theres NO SUN. So I feel I'm partly to blame for this sudden change in climate, Oh well, at least I can tick a job off on my 'to do' list.

Definitely no sunshine in these pictures! Had a little fabric left over so made a cushion as well.

Well it's very nearly the end of the Easter hols but what a fantastic couple of weeks it's been and I know this week won't seem too bad as it's only two days of school. Slightly nervous about Friday though as I've invited a few friends around for a BBQ to celebrate the Royal Wedding and it's forecast rain, I'm telling you I'm beginning to get paranoid about my power of our weather.

I'm going to stop wittering on now, thanks for stopping by and I hope you all had a lovely Easter break.
