Holiday time hurrah!!!

Been busy here at the home of Dotty Red, cutting, sewing and stuffing...
In fact once again its been a week filled with productivity...
I am pleased to report that at the weekend the pace slowed down a little bit and I even snatched a moment of solitude in the garden with a glass of wine and a good book...
Only to wake up an hour later with warm wine and the book on the floor...
Apart from that moment, its been hectic...
Working on a new line of 'beach hut' based cushions
and many, many lavender hearts, so many in fact my home smells delightful...
So the tent is packed and the car is busting at the the seams with all the camping gear... wellies, waterproofs and hot water bottles. Its half term and we are off in about an hour to fight our way through the traffic in the hope that we get our tent pitched up before bedtime...
I hope that you have super week and the sun manages to shine on what ever you are doing. Happy Holidays...

Am I mad to take my two boys camping when gales are predicted? Ah well, the need to be near a beach and the boys to see their old friends is more important than a bit of a breeze... Yes I believe I am mad, still you do what you have to do to see your children happy... Happy Camping!!!

All cushions sold, thank you for your interest, more on the way... :)

So sweet of you to take your boys camping. I know you are missing your beach (vacation) house. We had a Lake cottage and had to sell it. Boy, do I miss those getaways esp. on holiday week-ends like this one.
I love the new pillows. Wow, they are so cute.
Have fun camping. You are a good Mom.

Have a good week! I suppose any bad weather could be seen as something good to talk about in the future (do you remember the holiday the tent flew away/ the field flooded/ the beach had a landslide)We certainly swap tales of the thunder storms and the rain we remember. BUT it would be better if the weather was good, which is what I wish for you. Have a good rest, you deserve it after all that sewing!

Please tell me it's not freezing over there - the temperature is dropping low here (Tipperary, Ireland) at night time. Would love to go camping but wouldn't survive the cold. Enjoy. Vron
