Valentine small cushions!

Hello everyone, It wasn't my intention to wait for my next post for the second month of the year...i did expect and wanted to try and post more often this year but....nothing at all. I am not busy at all as work's very low due to winter season...since i got back from Asia i miss so much home that i spend lots of time to chatting to families back home as almost all we can chat through facebook even my mother so i do chat to her almost daily. So that's where my mind these days. These two where my only finishes last month and both sent to friends as a surprise gifts. I think they are still on the way, do hope though it got to them in time for Valentine's day. With a couple of friends we've been to the mainland to a garden centre last friday and i've bought a few orchids and some spring flowers, just potted them today! I do love how they came out...and now looking forward to Spring!! Last weekend had been socializing as usual, attended birthdays at the mainland and sunday just a get-together dinner at friends here on the island. Many many thanks for stopping by and all the lovely comments on my last post. Happy week to all!!!

Super cute Valentine pieces. Hope they arrive soon.

Life always seems to get in the way of keeping up with crafting and blogging, doesn't it?
