Family, uni and postcards..


My life has become hectic and the weeks are just racing by. A couple of weeks ago I was at Sefton Park to cheer on my Daughter and Grandson as they did the "Splash Dash" and raised £100 for Claires House. So very proud of them both.  I was keeping on top of my Uni homework and all was going well until I was knocked of my feet with a horrible cold and I am now playing catch up on everything.  I have had very little time left to sew but each week I send my neice Paige a poscard.  They are not always fabric homemade cards but this weeks one was, I made her this little owl.  I showed it to Colin who said it looks like ET and he has eaten Ready Brek? I didn't have a clue what he was talking about until he held the card up to the light and the yellow fabric becomes a transparent glow leaving the under body and the heart shape face of the owl making him look like ET who has had his Ready Brek.  I am sure some of you will remeber the advert for Ready Brek porridge.
