Folksy update!

Bottle Apron (catchy name, I know. Any further suggestions on a postcard please....) has just been listed over at Folksy (and I secretly hopes that no one buys her, because she's a favourite and I haven't got time to print and stitch a twin). I've listed her as part of the Howies 'Life is complicated. Sport is simple.' competition. Because you KNOW housework is an extreme sport......
In other news, not much crafting going on here, too many alterations (why are there so many short/oddly shaped people where I live?) and stripping instead (wallpaper, what were you thinking?) Quite frustrating actually, thought it was the summer holidays disrupting me, apparently it wasn't, it's just me. And somebody somewhere decided to only put 24 hours in a day. Idiot. Bet it was a man.

UPDATE: Bottle apron has got a new name , now officially called

"SHE'S GOT BOTTLE!"

Thanks JODIE!!!

It weren't me guv', honest.

I quite like that apron, ahem, tho' cos it was on a tailors wotsit I thought it was a dress at first... I'm only a part-time man... I'm not entirely sure what I am the rest of the time tho'. As you say, any suggestions on a postcard.

How did you print the design on? I am highly impressed. You may want to make it sound highly technical so I am further impressed... or just make it up, I wouldn't know.

How about "she's got bottle" an Australian term for she's got guts !.
Gorgeous as usual. Every time you print something I suffer pangs of ineptitude and start googling silk screen set-ups for days .....

That is gorgeous Sharon!!!! It would be hard to pick a favourite from your delectable wares, but I think this one is it! Love it!
I have been busy sewing (unusual, I know) and job hunting. It's amazing how time consuming that is! Still try to check on your blog most days. How is the kitchen designing going? xxx

This is great I love it. Akthough I fear I would put it to waste as I'm a bit of a lazy cleaner/cooker
