”Mum! I cannot believe it – Ben took my biscuit! He stuck out his long pink tongue and sucked it up!
He is a BAD Big Brother – Make him give it back – NOW!!”

Yesterday was Rosie’s birthday. She and Dan had a great day out at the Making of Harry Potter …..
Although I did help her learn to drive, I do not think this particular driving technique was included in her tuition! They had a great time, and Rosie came home with her very own Dumbledore wand. Sadly I do not think waving it will help me finish tidying my work room! But I have made a good start…..
My cupboard has been sorted out and look ! You can see the carpet, which is quite a novelty! Charlie the Patchwork Elephant presides proudly over my well-organised space and the chair with the blanket is my computer desk chair. Behind the closed door is my sewing area – but I am afraid this is not at all sorted and tidied yet, so is certainly far too messy to show (I am ashamed). Instead let’s sit at my desk …
A few familiar projects – my one remaining Cotton Spool Mouse (the others found kind new homes) – but I did discover one kit when I was tidying – please do email me (helen@bustleandsew.com) if you would like it – $15 plus postage. Then there’s my Fabric Deer Head and the Bustle & Sew Calendar too. Up on the shelf over my desk is the lovely little Japanese doll my Dad brought home from one of his many overseas trips when I was just a little girl…. loved and treasured for many years. And my little polar bear embroidery …..
all in French knots – I spent many happy hours in the gazebo one summer creating this sleepy young fellow – when Ben was young ….
Aaaahhhh.. so cute, so small – and, even then, so (just a little bit) slobbery! It’s been quite a few birthdays since Ben was that small!

Rosie came to visit this weekend and, after the vet advised that Daisy would be quite safe below the high water mark, where the beach is washed twice daily, and away from other dogs (her innoculations are not yet complete), we decided to introduce her to our very favourite beach … Lannacombe. Ben took charge …..
“OK, youngster …pay attention now – just watch and learn .. “
“Woooo ….. hoooo …… theees issss what you doooooo …….”
“Eeeeek, he’s a long way away … not too sure I can do that yet. Come back here Big Bro!”
“Nothing to worry about, little one … perhaps you’d rather roll around on the sand?”
“Pose nicely now … our humans love to take photos of us”
Soon Rosie was carrying a very sleepy baby dog back to the car.
And that was Daisy’s first trip to Lannacombe.
