So here’s my second post of doing Sunday Sevens! An easy link party; one photo to show something from your life every day!
1. Pumpkin madness has started at Walmart. I’m sure I only ever saw orange pumpkins in the UK!
2. I have started to crochet 
I’m still not sure what I think about it yet.

A quick post to show the other items that I made a couple of weeks ago for two expected babies. Hopefully, they will have made their way to England by now!
These are ‘taggies’ or ‘tag toys’ and they are very soft and scrumptious! I have never sewn with this soft flannel fabric before and it was a little trickier than I originally expected. A little stretchy and slippy! I chose owls; 2 different patterns and lots of ribbons. I think these are nice as a little handmade gift and will certainly keep them in mind for further gifts. Enjoy 🙂
I quite often see things on Pinterest, which I love and would love to make, but they would not have a purpose. Sometimes I pin them anyway, hoping that an event or occasion will come up and I can get my craft on!
A few weeks ago I saw this tutorial for a quilted baby book. I thought the idea was adorable! It combined a range of skills; quilting, embroidery, appliqué. Many of which I haven’t completed recently or for a number of years. I can confidently say that I can do all three. However, I haven’t done them for a while so this skill set is a bit rusty!
I have a friend back in England, who at the time of this creation, was pregnant but didn’t know if she was having a boy or a girl. I thought that this would be a lovely gift as it is very neutral! I was organised when I went shopping for the fabric. I made a comprehensive list and tried not to overbuy on fabric. Even though I did this, I still have loads of spare material left over!

The other day I announced a new link up where bloggers would take one simple photo everyday of the week. Sunday Sevens. The photo needs to show something about your life; something that you may not write into a blog but would like to share! Every Sunday, the photos would then be put together on a blog and shared with the World!
The #sundaysevens tag can also be searched for on other Social Media platforms 🙂 Anyone can be involved, even if you haven’t got a blog, you can just tag away!
I know that people won’t have had enough notice to perhaps publish a first post today but I thought I would put something together to demo how it could be done. Obviously, it doesn’t have to be the same but it may give you a few ideas if you’re stuck!

1. The daily decision of which sauce to put on my sandwich.

I had an idea for a blog post, involving my life and photography. Then I thought that I would share this idea with you to see if anyone else fancied joining in! Hopefully, it will be more than just me doing it 🙂
One photo taken per day of the week. That photo must portray a little bit of your life. It might be sewing, baking, reading….but it can also be other things too! Blogs are great as you get to search for posts and topics that you are interested in. We gain little bits of knowledge about the author of the blog but not too much; it’s almost always related to the post being written! However, my little bloggeroos, we do things everyday that are worthwhile but they just won’t make a blogpost.
