Lucky, lucky me there is another one coming up in a couple of weeks and I will be attending. I've been following Barb's preparations at On a Branch a Bird Sings and getting very excited.
Hope your day is filled with happiness

Barb Smith and Simply Vintage
Simply Vintage is my favourite magazine. It only comes out four times a year, one for every season, and so there is plenty of time to anticipate what each issue will bring. This is the cover of Winter 2013
and when I saw it I was thrilled to see some Theodora Cleave buttons (by Australian artist Barb Smith) used in some gorgeous Marg Low (another Aussie designer) designs. I knew I wanted to make some of them for this Christmas.
So I did, using one of the gorgeous buttons I bought from Barb at The Day of Play I attended a couple of months ago. These fabulous days are organised by Barb and Karen Martin of Mrs Martins Quilt Shop and are more fun than I can possibly describe.
Lucky, lucky me there is another one coming up in a couple of weeks and I will be attending. I've been following Barb's preparations at On a Branch a Bird Sings and getting very excited.
Isn't Hancocks House of Happy a wonderful name and it's a wonderful place too. Full of whimsy, which always makes me happy. Here we are in Movember so I thought this was a great LINK to share,
