What to do on a cold dull day....

There is only one thing to do on a very cold, dull March day.
Switch on some ambient lighting, tune into Classic fm and get on with making the first pocket for my apron.
 I have used vintage ticking and trim and added the small embroidered pieces that I got for £1.50 each at the Antique Textile Fair on Sunday.
Next I pinned the the fabric and trim layers to the bottom of the apron and started my next pocket. Nice and warm in our house but this little lady still needs a walk
 Then settling down with a nice hot cuppa and a look through my latest book before preparing the evening meal.
The title is wishful thinking for me haha
