Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I mainly post about my sewing projects, as I’m building a colourful and comfortable everyday wardrobe suitable for a working mum of primary school children. I really love African wax fabric, so that features heavily. I also occassionally post about family life in Edinburgh and travel. Hope you have a nice stay!

Milo in the top picture is after a birthday party, they drew on their tshirt. Obligatory Monster picture. It says ’tis misar monstr is in chrj’ – This Mr. Monster is in charge. I’m really loving all his independent writing!

We are trying to bribe Ellis into eating vegetables with reward points, with mixed results. But tonight he ate peppers willingly so I’m feeling vaguely optimistic!

Another party was a tennis party, and this is him showing us the games they played. He’s not actually smashing a tennis ball round the living room, even though it looks like that. McEnroe head and wrist bands from the party.

Ellis is obsessed with wearing his superman costume at all times.
