I have spent all day swearing at that sodding sowing machine. I hate it with a passion. After convincing my nana that I was completely competent with one I had to phone her to come fix the damned machine. The tiny bit that I practised on was good then it all went to hell after that.

I have been decapitating teddies for my dad, as part of an art project he is working on. I know, I know decapitating teddies is horrible, I feel like a monster! I had to cut their arms, legs and heads off then sow the pieces together. It’s part of a bigger project which I have asked him to tell you about. So as soon as his written it, he will be my first guest post!!

There’s been no progress on “Strength” due to teddy mutilation. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to work on it tonight. I’m so excited to finish it.
This morning i received a lovely thank you gift from Stitching Noni. Thank you so much! A beautiful handmade wall hanging- with a zebra on it! For those who don’t know a zebra is part of the EDS motto. It’s perfect!! The photo really doesn’t do it justice.

Can't wait to read the guest post and get an explanation to the decapitation...
I am trying to imagine what is going on, but I am pretty sure that I won't be able to guess! LOL
Curious and curious! What does your dad what with teddy heads! Or teddies without heads..... Can't wait to see his post :0)
I am so pleased that you liked the pressie I made for you. I hope that all your days have lots of nice little surprises!
Good luck with the dreaded machine!! I don't get along with sewing machines too well either!!
