My favorite closet

 Last weekend I decided to find something in my closet.... well it wasn't as neatly as it is on this pictures... so you can imagine... and I know you all know this feeling... I can't find it I now really need to do something about it... I need to organize my closet.... and I am so happy with the result I found what I was looking for and by the way, my most favorite closet in the whole house can be on a picture...
how long it stays this way...........

Jennifer Pudney

About two years ago in London at Liberty's I bought a little  embroidery pack of jennifer Pudney, whenever I go to a sunny country and have not much place for quilting or patchwork I take this little package with me and stitch with my feet in the sand, love that feeling wish it still was ......... but happily back home I love being behind my sewing machine.... and love the memory of the pictures below !!!
