    Thankyou:D I am going to make another one tonight for my shop, I really enjoy making them and they seem really popular at the moment. I just drew an owl shape on a piece of paper and winged it from there:rotfl:

    Cant remember who recommended it, actually I think a few people did, but i ordered Tilda's Sew Pretty Homestyle book and it came today and its beautiful!
    Even if I didn't make a thing its a lovely book to have and read.

    I went to our local fabric store and spent £8 on a big bag of beautiful remnants and im so excited to get at them and make something.
