Sew Magazine and a Blogaversary

We’ve had a weekend away. Freya and I shared a friend’s cabin at Center Parcs. It’s something we both love doing but we leave Mr Jones at home; he is rather disparaging about the place!

We had a great time on the Segways and even had some Stand Up Paddleboarding tuition but I seem to have spent the rest of the time submerged in water and have come home with a stinking cold!

So I’ve nothing to update. I can see by the multitude of posts I have to catch up with, you have all been really busy.

I just have this to report. The wedding purses I made for myself and Freya, for my wedding last year, made it into Sew Magazine as part of their wedding day makes article.  

I can hardly believe that this time last year I was up to my neck in wedding preparations.

I thoroughly enjoyed all my wedding crafting. Thankfully, I had managed to spread it out over a few months so nothing became a real chore. It’s not something I’d like to do again in a hurry, though!

And then this popped up in my notifications this morning!

My blog is two years old today!
I never thought I’d reach two years but blogging and reading blogs has become such a part of my day to day routine it’s not something I have to think consciously about making time for. Conversing with all you lovely people is not something I could consider not doing.

I get to meet some more sewing bloggers in ‘real life’ this weekend. We have a bloggers meet up arranged in Leeds to chat and tour around the local fabric stalls and shops; something I’m really looking forward to.
So I’d like to ask you, how old is your blog?

Love, Lucie xx
