The Amazons will be a Christmas present for a dear friend (she has the Dorothea and Dick already), and the Walker children will be mine when I have time to sew them.Ullahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176085550753578481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211285783434059218.post-22789267005294568022010-03-01T16:56:07.148+00:002010-03-01T16:56:07.148+00:00oh, how exciting!

I have Ikea fabric as our bedroom curtains that I made myself. They didn't iron very flat so they aren't amazingly neat to look at, even though my sewing was fine. I think it's a bit temperamental when used for heavily lined curtains. I'm sure if I were a better seamstress they would have been a little neater!Karen Cheunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01162058505350255330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2211285783434059218.post-87708291194417954402010-02-27T21:37:47.560+00:002010-02-27T21:37:47.560+00:00I grew to love camping, as I alluded to once in a ...I grew to love camping, as I alluded to once in a comment As a matter of fact, we will be taking a wee borrowed caravan to Lille in September and parking it in a place called Houplines. The caravan is a first, though: we are tent people - tent, gazburner, little fridge, some wine and some cheese, all on a tiny camping a la ferme.
