To keep those chills at bay...


Hello deary do's,


Thought I would share some of my very latest purchases as I haven't done that in quite a while. To be honest, I haven't been out much to do any shopping, so purchases are a rarity indeed!

I need another bed jacket like a hole in the head. My excuse for buying this one is that
1. it's wearable and
2. it was cheap, so I don't need to worry about wearing it! It's also very pretty...
 
 
This is my "don't you dare mess with me" face!


A rare photo of yours truly with her mouth firmly shut, looking not best pleased I must say. I don't tend to ever not smile in photos after being told I have a mean mouth -I guess it's the thin lips and I s'pose I do- haha oh how lovely teenage boys can be!
 

 
My second purchase of note was this stunning and may I add, huge posy- isn't it divine.
Mammy is going to make me a black dress (bought the fabric!), so this will look quite wonderful on it. Why have a tiddly posy when you can have a whopper like this one, eh!
 
 
“For me!? Oh, you shouldn’t have….What a darling” ;)
 
Moving on swiftly....
 
I was also saved this fabulous knitting pattern booklet. Quite a little treasure for me. It's a great issue, though I am quite jealous as I can't knit any of the garments for myself as they are all for the menfolk! I haven't found any patterns for 'me' me in such a long time :(
 
  (some lovely illustrations and pictures inside)
 
And last but by no means least, I found this little cutie-  all shout "Oh no! Not another Sweetheart brooch Tupney"

Though you really should be proud of me as it's not another pair of wings!!!

So there you are, some of my most recent purchases.
I did pick up a couple more things as well, but no doubt I will blog about those separately at some point!


Found anything interesting lately?
