Hello lovely bloggy friends i hope you are all fine and dandy ,it has been a busy couple of months here at patchwork house , my daughter turned 15 and my son turned 18 which i have found hard to believe and i must admit i do feel slightly daunting , i think it is the realisation that time is passing at such a pace , i can remember when they were both born and now ross is 18 and has also passed his driving test and i do feel old suddenly , life and the days seem to rush by and i feel i am forever clock watching , i feel sometimes i want to pull on the reins and slow things down and savour the moments 
I am very lucky to be able to work from home which i love so much , i have never been career minded so this suits me so well as my favourite place is my cosy home and i am here for the children whenever they need me and it gives me chance to do all my jobs around the house and garden as well as my sewing work ,
I am always busy with my work ,i have had a lot of orders lately but i am having a break from orders now so i can concentrate on some new lines and stock my shop up , here are a few things i have been working on lately
At the weekend i went to the Festival of vintage at york racecourse , and i could not resist these two gorgeous items ,my patchwork chair
And this lovely vintage case
And to finish off here are some homey pics

much love Francine xxx
