A Treasure Chest......
for my favourite pirate who turned 5 last week
This lovely edible treasure chest was made by DD1 - I think it's wonderful
Our little Pirate lives in the UK and he was 3 last time I cuddled him..... it really is time for another cuddle.
I felt really bad&sad as I had promised him I would be there for his party but things didn't work out.....
(eat your heart out Johnny Depp - you can walk the plank)
Pop along to Melody's House on the Side of the Hill and see what other treasures have been found - I do love the cottages she has found this week
My little blocks are growing......
hearts......
oh - I love, love yellow daisies.....
I really should clear up the loose threads before taking pictures!!
don't you just love this cute little stitchery on a 2" square
Definitely a project where I can get lost in my Happy Place
Hope you can too!
Your grandson and his cake are such a wonderful treasure!! And your stitching is very beautiful.
